I thought that Martin admitted that Siri was forced out by the threat of a "little brutality".
I've been a Siri Theory believer for a long time now. There's just too much there to ignore.
I believe Fr. Martin attempted to gloss over the details that Card Siri won the election and accepted to be Pope.
He claims Card Siri refused to be pope.
But the 5 minutes of “white smoke” traditionally meant he had accepted and chosen a papal name already.
Fr. Gruner seems to have wanted to follow the “rejection” story-line and acted as if Card Siri was the bad guy.
I recall reading John Vennari’s front page assessment in CFN, that the Siri theory was bogus. John’s boss was Fr. Gruner, in case not everyone knows this.
So, you have three American conservative Catholic media figures, with as much national influence as 20 Bishops, misleading those trying to be faithful to Our Lord’s Church.
It is amazing how collectively naive we are
