Alleged Medjugorje "seer" Mirjana Soldo, who first predicted a "Great Sign" from the Virgin which would arrive "soon" back in 1981.Recently (Dec. 11th, 2009) Bishop Ratko Peric of the Diocese of Mostra, Herzegovnia, published a new paper chronicling the mess of deception and contradiction that has come out of the Medjugorje seers in the past 29 years. The paper centers on the elusive "sign" that the seers began promising in 1981 and which has since never materialized - and of which some defenders of Medjugorje are now denying was ever part of the messages.
Bishop Peric really tells us nothing new here, but he puts the whole debacle in a chronological order and brings out some of the most grevious errors of the seers, including outright lies and intentional deception, not to mention heresy (Mary telling the seers they no longer need to pray for their own souls), contradiction and ambiguity.
Despite the misunderstanding a few months back about the Vatican condemning Medjugorje, rumors persist that something is in the works. Since nothing more specific can be said, I'm going to leave it at that for now.
By the way, if you are a follower of Medjugorje, please do not respond if your comments will just be about how so many people are converting and how we just all need to be non-judgmental; telling people not to be judgmental does not take away the problem that Ivan and the seers have been caught in many lies and contradictions. If you want to comment, please make comments directly relating to the obvious lies and deceptions perpetrated by Ivan, Mirjana, Vicka and the seers and what you make of them.
