Q: Are you not being excessive in your zeal in promoting the consecration of Russia by the Pope and all the Catholic bishops?

A: I am not in the least excessive in my zeal. Not at all! Excess in anything is to be judged by the context to see if a thing is in proportion. Obviously, when the very existence of nations hangs in the balance, when the personal freedoms and property rights of 4 billion people worldwide is about to be lost irreparably, and the only way that this disaster will be avoided is to seek by all legitimate means, to have the Pope and the bishops consecrate Russia to The Immaculate Heart of Mary, then it is not excessively zealous to seek for this means to be used.

No one would reproach a Mother for begging, even out loud, for the fireman to do his duty of putting out the fire that is demolishing the house which her family, at that very moment, still occupies. It would not be excessive zeal nor would any right thinking person reproach her for importuning the firemen and even doing it loudly for all to hear because if they do not act soon all her children will perish in a horrible death. This is what is going to happen to tens of millions of children of the Church if the Pope and bishops do not put out the fire of Russian Communism now engulfing the world and about to devour the rest of us.

Q: Are you making unfounded affirmations about this Message of Fatima?

A: The facts of Fatima are well documented and verifiable, independent of myself and The Fatima Crusader. There are over 300 books on Fatima. They are published in many languages and countries and any scholar or student of Fatima can satisfy himself completely that we are telling the truth about Fatima. If any serious student wishes to question us about any particular affirmation that he cannot find independently of ourselves we will give our references for him to verify by himself. So far no one has ever honestly and seriously challenged the substance of anything that we have published without being shown why what we say is correct.

Q: What about the threat that "certain excesses of zeal and unfounded affirmations" will bring "upon your apostolate a condemnation from the highest Church authorities"?

A: As we have already pointed out we have not made any unfounded affirmations, nor does the writer of that threat point out any unfounded affirmations that we have made. Secondly, we have already pointed out that our zeal is not excessive.

Thirdly, if any authority is going to condemn us, there must first be a promulgated law which we have allegedly broken, and that authority must tell us what law we are supposed to have broken. He must give us a chance to defend ourselves against the charges. The authority in question must be willing to take responsibility for condemning us.

So far no one in authority has been found to take such responsibility, nor has any law been broken, nor have I been accused of any specific crime against Church law. If we have published something untrue, we will withdraw it but so far no Church authority has accused us of any specific wrong-doing on our part.

Q: What do you think brings about these threats that unnamed Church officials will condemn your Apostolate?

A: We have long been aware that our publication of the Vatican-Moscow Agreement has bothered certain bishops. Bishop Brzana did not like us stating that the Vatican-Moscow Agreement has betrayed the Church.

I demonstrated to him in an open letter published in Issue No. 18 that the Vatican-Moscow Agreement is a betrayal of the Church and of individual Catholics. He has no answer to our facts and reasoning except to close his mind to the truth and use his position as bishop to insinuate falsehoods against me and the Fatima Crusader. Apparently it is the strategy of the devil and other enemies of Our Lady to try to discredit us so that all our work is rendered useless and thereby enabling the Communists to enslave all North America and the world. As long as the Vatican-Moscow Agreement is in place then the Pope and bishops will not obey the command of Our Lady to consecrate Russia.

So it is not out of spite or any motive of revenge that we return to affirm the existence of the Vatican-Moscow Agreement - it is because the lives and even the eternal salvation of so many souls are at stake.

The only armor we have against the errors of Russia being spread among us is the armor and sword of truth - as long as we refuse to denounce the errors of Russia, the Communists will be able to enslave us. Already they are now so close that they are one step away from succeeding.

Q: Are you in any way afraid of a condemnation from high authorities in the Church?

A: A few years ago, a Nuncio tried to have me silenced. I wrote to Pope John Paul II and told him that an unnamed person(s) was trying to silence me for some unknown and unnamed, unspecified alleged misdemeanor. I told the Pope that if we had printed something wrong that we would withdraw it in public but if we had done nothing wrong then it was wrong for the Church officials to try to impose sanctions on me for
