Drawing from never-before-seen documents—letters, photographs, drawings, and newspaper articles—Johan Ickx answers questions that have swirled for decades, and through key topics and short stories, he discloses what really occurred, which is quite contrary to the dominant narrative.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlthough numerous accounts exist on the subject, here you will find the authoritative untold history of the Church’s efforts, inspired by Pope Pius XII, to save the innocent. You will see records of the tireless efforts of cabinet members in heated back-room meetings to resist Nazi expansion and evidence of Pius XII’s diplomatic attempts to curb the Third Reich policies without filters or embellishments.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn these gripping pages, you will learn about Pius XII’s:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Condemnations of totalitarianism and interventions for those who begged for his help \u003cbr\u003e• Methods for saving thousands of Jews from discovery and deportation \u003cbr\u003e• Secret friendship with President Roosevelt to quell the rise of barbaric dictatorship \u003cbr\u003e• Support for the Roman Escape Line to help the most persecuted \u003cbr\u003e• Rejection of Marshal Pétain’s racial laws \u003cbr\u003e• Organization of emergency baptisms to shield thousands of Jews from deportation \u003cbr\u003e• The origin of Pope Pius XII's doctrine on the Jews\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou will read the shocking details of Nazi persecution of Christians and attacks on the Cross, along with how the Nazis misconstrued the Holy Father’s writings. You will find out about the appalling actions of Slovakia’s Nazi government and how Pius XII repeatedly denounced them. Moreover, you will see Pius XII’s anguished restraint in remaining outwardly impartial to avoid detection and retaliation against the Jews—while working tirelessly to arrange hiding places and visas for Jews in Poland, Italy, Romania, Hungary, and the Holy Land.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePius XII shines as an example of “soft diplomacy at its hardest” in the darkest times of Nazi-occupied Europe. You will be captivated by the network of heroic individuals, including secret informants of the pope, who risked or gave their lives to rescue others. It is through their firsthand accounts, as unveiled in these documents, that we know today the true story of what happened.",

"description":"The Right Hand of the Lord is Exalted\u003cbr\u003eA History of Catholic Traditionalism from Vatican II to Traditionis Custodes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“The religious and cultural crisis has penetrated even within contemporary traditionalism, dividing it into groups and currents. Porfiri was struck by these divisions and observes how there exists not Catholic traditionalism today but rather many traditionalisms, often working among them in ‘remarkable tension.’” — Professor Roberto de Mattei, Author, Pius V\u003cbr\u003eIt is no secret that many factions exist in the Church. The challenge, however — and increasingly so — is in determining which are propagating error and which are shedding light. Through historical vignettes and penetrating writings from a range of sources, Aurelio Porfiri, musician and essayist, examines the emergence of traditionalism in the wake of the Second Vatican Council, the debates concerning liturgy that it has engendered, and the Church’s current relationship with the world. Through his sharp-eyed research, relationships, and insights, you will be empowered to discern where the truth lies and how to navigate the stormy waters of modern-day Roman Catholicism.\u003cbr\u003eIn these absorbing pages, well documented but at the same time easily readable, Porfiri evaluates whether the Second Vatican Council is the real cause of the current crisis in the Church. You will discover if our present divisions and schisms originated during the pontificate of Pope Francis or before. Cogently, Porfiri reveals:\u003cbr\u003e• The true intentions of St. John XXIII in convening the Second Vatican Council\u003cbr\u003e• The origins of modernism and its persistent effects in our current crisis\u003cbr\u003e• The impact of more than a dozen influential Catholic theologians and intellectual movements on the present situation of the Church\u003cbr\u003e• The tension between continuity and change, traditionalism and progressivism\u003cbr\u003e• What St. Paul VI said regarding the Church’s role in light of cultural trends \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e• Whether Benedict XVI’s resignation was an act of courage or neglect\u003cbr\u003eMoreover, Porfiri recounts the turbulence of the 1960s within the Church and within society as a whole, reflecting on the struggle between obedience to the hierarchy and individual convictions, not only among clergy but among popular figures of the time. You will learn about the Church’s response to contemporary political ideologies, such as communism, and her views regarding ecumenism. Additionally, you will learn about priests who spoke out against progressivism and the consequences they faced as a result, as well as what happened to those who promulgated homosexual views.\u003cbr\u003eFar from an ideological diatribe, this work asks the authentic question: Is traditionalism the solution for the crisis of the Church, and if so, how is it properly defined? You will learn details about efforts to defend the use of Latin and preserve traditional liturgy in response to the reforms following the Second Vatican Council, St. John Paul II’s attempts to restore unity, and what the last three pontiffs had to say about traditionalism. Despite the current climate of division, reading this book will give you reasons to fight for the truth in the Church, and the motivation to do so.",
