Benedict XVI Allegedly Denied Having Co-Authored Book On Celibacy

Several liberal Vaticanists claim that Benedict XVI "has not" co-authored his book on celibacy with Cardinal Robert Sarah.

Among the journalists are Elisabetta Piqué (La Nación), Hendro Munstermann (Nederlands Dagblad), Christopher Lamb (The Tablet), Gerard O'Connell (America Magazine) and Juan Vicente Boo (ABC.es).

They refer to an "anonymous person close to Joseph Ratzinger" claiming that Benedict never saw or approved the book but only gave Cardinal Sarah an essay on the priesthood that he had been working on.

The publisher of the book's English version, Father Joseph Fessio, responded to the rumours. He wrote to CatholicNewsAgency.com that Sarah told Ignatius Press that the chapters by Ratzinger are from Ratzinger, “We take his word for it.”

The essence of the false pontificate of francis 1st is dissimulation and when that fails , outright lying.
Catholics are advised to avoid everything to do with the schismatic followers of francis 1st.

Mr. Vincent Boo, author of "The Pope of Joy" and "33 keys of Pope Francis": "Benedict XVI never saw or approved the book that Cardinal Sarah presents as the work of both."

Elisabetta Piqué, the Rome correspondent of Argentine daily La Nacion, who is close to Francis, said that a "high Vatican source" claims Benedict never wrote any part of the book. But Sarah showed evidence of Benedict XVI's accompanying letters.

Antipope Francis is not trustworthy. Only idiots believe anything connected to him.

"an anonymous person close to Joseph Ratzinger" He also says Pope Francis is secretly a practicing Satanist. This anonymous source is close to both men, so it must be true, amirite? :P

If O’Connell really believed his source, he should name the person, when it’s shown that the story is false.
