Top reviews from the United States

  • Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2013
    There were over 100 Masons who were priests, Cardinals and bishops. Many were running the Vatican. That was against the Papel law. Some of their closest friends were mafia. They were involved in the buying and selling of many companies and banks, borrowing from Peter to pay Paul, moving money to show false profits of the banks, manipulating the stocks, in the manufacture of counterfeit bonds, selling them to banks in Rome, Vatican and elsewhere, and many banks failed because of their ingenius criminal schemes. They were personally holding sometimes a thousand houses to rent out to people, stealing millions of dollars for themselves and putting money in places like the Bahamas. There was a connection between the Vatican and United States primarily the Chicago Cardinal Marcinkus and his mafia friend who was hiding there from Italian government prosecution. Marcinkus was now working for Pope Paul VI at the Vatican, not only as his bodyguard but he put him in charge of the Vatican "bank". When Pope John Paul I came in and found all of this Information to be true, plus he did not appreciate the secret sale of his Venice Catholic bank to the mafia which had given priests low interest loans for their favorite charities, etc. but no more, he had foreknowledge of some of the shenanigans that were going on in the Vatican And he remembered his demeaning dismissal by Marcinkus when he had confronted him about it. Now that he was pope, one of the first things on his agenda was to get rid of Marcinkus and Marcinkus knew it. Just over a month after becoming pope, he made a list of all the people he was removing and when he presented this list to Cardinal Villot around 7 PM, Villot could not help but notice that all of these people were Freemasons, and Pope John Paul died before the sun rose. It was said that the alarm went off and was on all night and it was not answered; guards had been removed. Early in the morning after his long-time nun and assistant who brought him coffee each morning at 4:30, found him dead , glasses's slippers, medicine, list of the people he was having removed and his will were taken and Villot called the embalmers. But the nun told a bishop, a close friend of the pope who was living in the Vatican and he started calling friends, relatives and the pope's doctor who was shocked because Luciani had been so healthy. Meanwhile, Villot and friends were busy covering their tracks. He finally called the doctor, they changed the entire story of what had happened and they lied, lied and lied. I had heard on the radio many years later, Malichi Martin, who spoke in length about this and stated that the pope died over $350 million that was missing from the Vatican. He mentioned that one banker supposedly committed suicide, but in the book, we find that many people were murdered, and the figures went up to over $1 billion of thefts. I know that God was very angry about what happened to this wonderful, honest pope who refused to wear the jeweled necklaces, he sold the two and gave the money to the poor, the fancy clothes; he wore a simple robe and walked into his own Coronation which he made simple, refusing to be carried in the Pope's chair, and refused to wear the jeweled crown, Against the rules of the Vatican, he insisted upon visiting the sick at the hospital weekly. His plan was not only to remove all the corruption from the Catholic Church, but to give most of Catholic Church's money to the poor, after liquidating all the companies. He felt sorry for people like his brother who had 10 children so was in favor of the birth control pill which went against those running the church from the Vatican. Upon the death of a pope, anything that he was implementing ended. I was on vacation in Rome and remember the tour guide pointing to a window in the Vatican apartments, saying that one of the guards was murdered over a love affair but now I wonder. I was there during the conclave, and attended the coronation outside in the Square so when when God gave me a dream about this soon after the death of Pope John Paul I, I knew it was about his death over money and eventually I figured out its full meaning and began searching for more information. I know that God and this wonderful, honest pope were very close and I can only imagine how angry God is about this. I appreciate all the time that went into this book. Although the book went into a lot of detail, it read like a best selling novel, very exciting, fascinating and unfortunately very sad. The Catholic Church was or perhaps still is in a lot of trouble.

    This is the second book I have purchased in my attempt to better understand the events leading up to the probable murder of this incredible Pope. It is definitely better than the previous book, but still has its weaknesses. This book provides a great foundation for the life of Pope John Paul I from the time he was born until his untimely death. (What a great man he was!) And those most likely for his death are well researched and presented fully. Unfortunately, I do not know much about international banking laws and the book does not educate the reader in this area. Yes, it is pertinent to the circumstances leading to the Pope's death and I realize the author wanted to provide sufficient information about this mitigating aspect. I just tried to absorb as much as I could and let the rest go. There is really only one chapter that truly dwells on international banking and after that, it reads well. Perhaps there are other readers out there who will appreciate learning what this book affords on international banking laws and I commend them! But, for the majority of the book that identifies the Pope's "murderers," I was mesmerized as I read.

    In The Name of God, what an appropriate title for this book. How can these people live with themselves? The most flabbergasting part was when you read the part that the Pope, the Holy See, is aware of the corruption and turns a blind eye.
  • Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2022
    I must take issue with the reviewers who found David Yallop's expose "an arduous read." Nonsense. Yallop's able investigation of the mysterious death of Pope John Paul is a page-turner. His book leads the reader incrementally to an inescapable and damning conclusion: a very fine pope was murdered by Vatican insiders when he attempted to reign in church corruption.

    Yallop does a excellent job delving into the character and personality of Bishop Albino Luciani, the future John Paul I. Luciani was exactly the sort of man the church needed in 1978 when he was elected to the papacy. There was a great deal to like and love about this simple, humble yet very intelligent man. He had many fine qualities, including wisdom. But what made John Paul I special and set him apart was his inner strength. John Paul I had a steel backbone. He was not afraid to stand up to evil, including the darkness within the Church. John Paul I knew from experience that evil things were happening at the Vatican Bank.

    Within a few years of its creation in 1942, the Vatican Bank became a cess pool of criminal activity. By the late 1940s, the CIA, mafia, drug lords, arms merchants and basically the scum of the earth were using it for all manner of illegal activities. From their standpoint, the absence of all accountability made the Vatican Bank an ideal $ laundry. The Vatican, after all, is a sovereign nation. And the man selected to run the Vatican Bank answers to no law -- only to the Pope.

    Albino Luciani never sought the limelight, and never wanted to become pope. He was drafted for the job by the college of cardinals. Once selected, however, Luciani never flinched. He chose the name John Paul I, rolled up his sleeves and began the urgent task of cleaning up the Vatican Bank. No doubt, John Paul I would have succeeded had he lived.

    Today, it is vitally important that Catholics understand what it all means -- the grave implications. John Paul I's murder showed that the institutional Church lacks the capacity to self - correct. The criminal activities of the Vatican Bank continue to this day with the blessing of John Paul I's successors.

    John Paul II, Ratzinger (Benedict XVI) and Francis all lacked the moral and spiritual strength to take up and finish the task John Paul barely began. Instead of cleaning out the stables, all of these recent popes looked the other way. It's why the Church is dying....from inner rot. Even as the Fatima prophecies play out!

    Is it any wonder the churches are empty?

    5.0 out of 5 stars Not surprised. Have read it twice as well as the addendum after Vatican commissioned a book to deny everything.
    Reviewed in Canada on September 2, 2017
    This is a powerful refutation of all the lies coming from the Vatican about the murder of Pope Paul I and the scandals surrounding the criminal activity in the Vatican Bank. The author is a careful, well-sourced investigative writer . I first read this many years ago and then when part Three of "The Godfather" made allusions to several of the outrageous criminal activities of the P2 (a special brand of Masons to which many Curia bigwigs belonged (contrary to Canon Law which was death on the Free Mason Lodges) and which itself was criminal. Of course the Vatican denies all, just as it denied all in other moral matters such as the Christian Brothers getting into little boys pants in St. John's Newfoundland and to other other similar scandals around the world. Pope Paul I was about to clean up the entire mess in the Vatican and the church worldwide but unfortunately he trusted some of the Cardinals and was done away with the same day. This is a blockbuster which many RC's are in denial about. Hopefully the present Pope Francis can clean out the Augean stables. This make the sins of the Roman Catholic church in Luther's time two-bit stuff.
