Certain high-level subordinates and even some local officials may have engaged in unethical, or at least unauthorized, dealings either for personal gain or even with good intentions. Indeed, the tremendous power wielded by religious entities in history is not unique to the Church. Furthermore, investigative reporters or historians are often biased perhaps unwittingly. For example, I wonder whether the author of this book reads Italian, or German, or merely relied on translations by other sources.G Chenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06757593605446510813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2865574440201600064.post-15175122458220260012015-02-09T16:38:03.692-05:002015-02-09T16:38:03.692-05:00This looks very interesting!!This looks very interesting!!Patti Vnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2865574440201600064.post-72265847213589364042015-02-09T11:51:37.653-05:002015-02-09T11:51:37.653-05:00I have read the reviews on this book and I believe...I have read the reviews on this book and I believe it gives more details to things that are known but things that some would hope to that all of us would forget. I want the books so that I have a source to point. I make comments online. I try to be positive and point to solutions and support those who are attempting to make changes. My suspicion is that Francis will do better if he gets rid of the bank. Just Christ did not intend to found an earthly kingdom, the Catholic Church does not need a bank and would do much better without one. That is what I would do with the book.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03796284812227043709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2865574440201600064.post-27106616407436815892015-02-09T10:52:14.894-05:002015-02-09T10:52:14.894-05:00This looks like a book that I would love to read.
