    Discuss. Is this genuine, and if so, who had it?

    One of the major shortcomings of TIA is, they usually do not post
    dates for their various pages, so you often have no idea of when a
    particular statement was made, or when the page was written,
    or when such words as "recently" refer to:  


    "...Some unidentified person who had access to this
    docuмent released a photo of it very recently."


    In this case, however, they do have the date of the translation at
    the bottom of the page -- maybe that refers to the whole article,
    but it is customary to put the date of the article at the TOP of the
    page, to avoid any confusion.  This is another shortcoming of TIA.


    In this case in particular, it is rather indiscrete of the TIA authors to
    post this page as if the docuмent might be the actual Third Secret,
    because it is most OBVIOUSLY NOT the Third Secret, and that is so
    simple to prove, that a child could do it.


    Other than that, they are most capable at translating Portuguese to
    English and vice versa, so we can be pretty sure that the page
    displayed actually says what this webpage presents it as saying.


    It is rather impossible for anyone to come across a copy of the real
    Third Secret lying around, such as among the personal effects of
    Sr. Lucy.  But furthermore, it seems rather conspicuous that these
    TIA authors would present such a thing, as if something like this,
    which had been perhaps collected "very recently" could be
    authentic, since they have another page on TIA that says the real
    Sr. Lucy died around 1960 and was replaced by an imposter who
    then died after A.D. 2000.  If this page was "released recently" then
    why would it not have been FOUND 'recently' as well?  No mention
    is made of how long the person who found it has had it, or how its
    authenticity could be established.  It could, in other words, be a
    fake, especially since there have been several other fakes at large.


    Here is their post of the translation:


    English Translation


        Tuy September 1, 1944 or April 1, 1944

        JMJ


        Now I am going to reveal the third fragment of the secret: This part is the apostasy in the Church!

        Our Lady showed us the individual who I describe as the 'holy Father' in front of a multitude that was cheering him.

        But there was a difference from a true holy Father, his devilish gaze, this one had the gaze of evil.

        Then, after some moments we saw the same Pope entering a Church, but this Church was the Church of hell; there is no way to describe the ugliness of that place. It looked like a gray cement fortress with broken angles and windows similar to eyes; it had a beak in the roof of the building.

        Next, we raised our eyes to Our Lady who said to us: You saw the apostasy in the Church; this letter can be opened by the holy Father, but it must be announced after Pius XII and before 1960.

        In the kingdom of John Paul II the cornerstone of Peter's grave must be removed and transferred to Fatima.

        Because the dogma of the faith is not conserved in Rome, its authority will be removed and delivered to Fatima.

        The cathedral of Rome must be destroyed and a new one built in Fatima.

        If 69 weeks after this order is announced, Rome continues its abomination, the city will be destroyed.

        Our Lady told us that this is written,[in] Daniel 9:24-25 and Matthew 21:42-44

  • The Third Secret is still locked up in the Vatican, yet to be released. How could they know this was the real one? The Pope hasn't released it!

    He should have done so 50 years ago.

    The problem with this is, it's impossible for it to be 'the real one'.

    The Real Third Secret is nothing like this.  

    I find it noteworthy that not a single one of the several fakes
    have been anywhere close to what the real one looks like.  

    So either the fakers don't "get it" and that's why they miss
    with every attempt;  or else, they're thinking that nobody else
    "gets it"
    -- so why should they even try?


    Because all these ridiculous bad guesses are just too much.

    Exactly. The content of the real one is horrible, so says those who've read it such as Cardinal Ottaviani and Malachi Martin.

    We won't likely know what it is till it's happened. Unless the Pope decides to listen to Our Lady, which isn't going to happen. They'll just keep withholding the Consecration of Russia and the release of this secret until things get so bad that they'll be pushed to do it.

    Example:  

    The Blessed Virgin Mary does not use bad grammar, or make
    nonsensical statements.  Everything she says carries a lot of
    weight because it is packed with meaning.  

    She comes from a place where ALL TRUTH IS KNOWN, and she
    has NO REASON to make silly errors with her words.  

    Keeping that in mind, check out this sentence:  

    Quote

        "Because the dogma of the faith is not conserved in Rome, its authority will be removed and delivered to Fatima."  




    That is a compound sentence, which is not a problem in itself, but
    as such, the second part, after the comma, should refer to the
    first part, especially in light of the fact that the subject of the
    second sentence is "ITS."  

    "Its authority will be moved," refers to the authority of something.
    Now, would it be the authority of -- the subject of the first part?  
    Normally, that would be the case.  Such as:  "My apple is green,
    but its skin is thin."  Obviously, "its" refers to the subject, "apple,"
    because you don't say "green has a skin."
     
    However, with this:  "Since the apple has a worm on top, it's going
    to be removed;"  is the apple going to be removed, or is the worm
    going to be removed?  

    So in the quote, can we be sure that it does not mean that the
    authority of the dogma of the faith will be removed and delivered
    to Fatima?  But if that were the meaning, then this authority which
    will be moved from Rome to Fatima has not been conserved in Rome,
    so how can it now be moved out of Rome, after having not been
    conserved there?  Also, how does a dogma's authority have any
    specific location, such as Rome or such as Fatima?  

    Alternatively, if it means that the authority of Rome will be moved
    to Fatima because in Rome the dogma of the faith has not been
    conserved,
    it would seem it is as a consequence or perhaps a
    punishment for not conserving the dogma in Rome.  


    Of the two possibilities, the second seems the more likely.  

    Similarly, we have the preceding and subsequent sentences, as
    follows:

    Quote

        In the kingdom of John Paul II the cornerstone of Peter's grave must be removed and transferred to Fatima.

        Because the dogma of the faith is not conserved in Rome, its authority will be removed and delivered to Fatima.

        The cathedral of Rome must be destroyed and a new one built in Fatima.



    Let's take the subsequent one first.  What is the cathedral of Rome?  
    One might think that's St. Peter's, however, that is not a cathedral, but
    a basilica.  The Cathedral of Rome is San Giovanni.  It is one of the
    most ancient churches in the world, and steeped in history, but this
    message says it must be destroyed.  One is left wondering if it will
    be destroyed BECAUSE of this message, or because of something
    else.  The more likely is the latter.  But what that cause is, is not
    mentioned, therefore we have an unknown force that will destroy San
    Giovanni Cathedral in Rome, and the reason is because the dogma of
    the faith has not been conserved in Rome.


    Finally there is the "kingdom of John Paul II."  When has Our Lady ever
    referred to any location, especially one in Rome, as "a kingdom" of a
    pope, but not only a pope, but a pope who would not be elected for
    another 34 years?  There is one time at Fatima when she predicted a
    second war (world war) and a worse one, that would begin in during
    the reign of Pius XI, but he would not be elected for another 5 years
    (from 1917 to 1922).  But even so, she didn't say, "the kingdom of
    Pius XI."  This lack of precedent makes the phrase look rather contrived.
    It wouldn't be the first time Our Lady said something that was a shocker,
    for she said to St. Bernadette, "I am the Immaculate Conception."  That
    one sentence put a number of theologians into pretzel shapes of logical
    contortions.  But it had enormous implications.  

    For her to say "the kingdom of John Paul II" would seem to imply that
    the See of Peter somehow belongs to one particular Pope, and by any
    reasonable assessment, one of the worst of all the popes.  Which other
    pope instead of dying to resist indifferentism endeavored to practice it?
    And he is called the King of the Papacy by Our Lady?  I don't think so.
    But in any event, this "kingdom" apparently refers to Vatican City, for
    that's the only sovereign state over which the Pope could be said to
    be the "king."

    The "cornerstone of Peter's grave" is a real puzzle.  When the tomb of
    St. Peter was discovered (and it was only recently) there was no
    cornerstone there.  All of the "stones" you see there today have been
    brought in to dress up the space, because it was just a hole in the
    dirt when it was found.  A cornerstone is for the foundation of a stone
    building (not for a wood frame or a steel building).  And additionally, the
    laying of a cornerstone has a lot of symbolic significance for Freemasons.

    The transferral of a "cornerstone" as part of the translation of relics and/or
    power and/or authority from one place to another is more of a Masonic
    type of thing than a Catholic one.  Last but not least, the conferred
    Scripture is regarding "the head of the corner," which is otherwise known
    as the keystone, not the cornerstone.  A keystone is the one at the top
    of an archway that locks all the other stones into place, making a strong
    arch that spans over a gateway or a passageway. To confuse this with
    a stone that is placed in the ground as part of the foundation is not a
    small matter.  Since there are no keystones or cornerstones in St. Peter's
    tomb, our best guess would be "some important part of St. Peter's
    grave."


    Therefore, we have:

    In Vatican City, some important part of St. Peter's grave
    shall be translated to Fatima, Portugal.  The authority of Rome
    will be moved to Fatima because in Rome the dogma of the faith
    has not been conserved.  This is a consequence or perhaps a
    punishment for not conserving the dogma in Rome.  We have an
    unknown force that will destroy San Giovanni Cathedral in Rome,
    and the reason is because the dogma of the faith has not been
    conserved in Rome.



    Usually, when you reconstruct a text like this based on the context,
    it makes the whole more clear.  But in this case, does this
    reconstruction help the meaning or make it less understandable?

  • Actually, there was a report that the True Third Secret of Fatima was stolen from the Papal Apartment during the reign of Paul VI. and was never denied.

    Another example of why this can't be the real Third Secret is, that
    it borrows too much from what had already been said.  This makes
    it repeat previous words from Our Lady's message.  

    But the previous words that she spoke at Fatima, in the first,
    second and third apparitions, were not repeats of anything else.
    Therefore, this aspect of a repetition in the Third Secret makes it
    look like it does not belong in context.  



    But the real Third Secret has to look like it fits perfectly, like hand-
    in-glove, or key-in-lock.  This one doesn't.



    Specifically,

    There are 118 words here before you get to the first word that this
    page claims was spoken by Our Lady.  Are those 118 words part of
    the Third Secret?  The first line of text says that they are:

    "Now I am going to reveal the third fragment of the secret:..."

    I'm not counting those words as among the 118 that are not Our
    Lady's.  If I had done so it would be 130 words, not 118.  Where
    in all of the Fatima Message does Sister Lucia waste 130 words?
    So this is not like Sister Lucia to do this.  

    When did Sr. Lucia ever refer to the Third Secret as "the third
    fragment of the secret?"  Never.  Nor did she ever say in a letter
    to someone, "Now I'm going to reveal" something.  So this is not
    like her, either.  

    Immediately before you get to the actual word of Our Lady, this
    page says that the children... "Next, we raised our eyes to Our
    Lady who said to us:"  But the place where the text breaks off at
    the real Third Secret is in mid-sentence, not when the children all
    "raised their eyes" to her.  And why would Francisco have raised his
    eyes to her, when he wasn't able to hear her words?  



    Then it has: "This part is the apostasy in the Church!"  Who said that?
    Was this Sr. Lucia's words or Our Lady's?  Nowhere is Sr. Lucia so
    vague as to make it ambiguous who it is that is speaking.



    The place where Our Lady left off was at least immediately following
    this sentence, but perhaps in the middle of a sentence which began
    as:  "In Portugal, the dogma of the faith shall always be preserved..."  

    Do these words, then, continue that beginning? :  

    Quote
       You saw the apostasy in the Church; this letter can be opened by the holy Father, but it must be announced after Pius XII and before 1960.

        In the kingdom of John Paul II the cornerstone of Peter's grave must be removed and transferred to Fatima.

        Because the dogma of the faith is not conserved in Rome, its authority will be removed and delivered to Fatima.

        The cathedral of Rome must be destroyed and a new one built in Fatima.

        If 69 weeks after this order is announced, Rome continues its abomination, the city will be destroyed.

        Our Lady told us that this is written,[in] Daniel 9:24-25 and Matthew 21:42-44



    That is to say, is this a logical continuation of that sentence? :  

    "In Portugal, the dogma of the faith shall always be preserved.  You saw
    the apostasy in the Church; this letter can be opened by the holy
    Father, but it must be announced after Pius XII and before 1960..."

    What "letter" is she talking about?  There was no "letter" being spoken
    of on July 17th, 1917 by Our Lady.  

    The words "this letter can be opened by the holy Father, but it must be
    announced after Pius XII and before 1960"
    are conspicuously contrived.
    They borrow from messages that Sr. Lucia received years later (regarding
    writing these things down, and when the writings could be unsealed).  

    Also, Sr. Lucia was not able to read or write at that time.  Our Lady had
    only just told her that summer that she should study to learn to read and
    write.  So she would not be talking about any non-existent "letter" in the
    real Third Secret!  

    "You saw the apostasy in the Church" is frankly ridiculous.  Our Lady had
    said just a few moments before, after the vision of hell, "You have seen
    hell where poor sinners go..."  and this quip above is just a copy-cat of
    those words (You saw the apostasy in the Church).



    There is a LOT more..............

    Hmmm....  I didn't catch that.  Good eye.  

    The posted image looks like "Tuy 1/4/944" or maybe 1/9/944 -- so I wonder
    how they think it's supposed to be "1944" when it says "944?"

    In America that would be January 4th or 9th, but this is Portugal.  

    Any way you look at it, there's a problem.  

    But April Fool's is perhaps the worst problem.

    Come to think of it, the thing looks more like "Tuy  1/4/911".


    So maybe it's some kind of a prophesy of 911?  

    At the bottom of the page it has "21 42-44" regarding the Scripture.  
    It's always helpful to see questionable figures compared to other
    figures on the same page that are the same characters, like for
    comparing 44 with 44 elsewhere on the page, here.
