Many were surprised by the election of Pope Francis.
Author Julia Melonia, in her meticulously researched and well written book, ST Gallen Mafia; Exploring the Secret Reformist Group in the Church, published by Tan Books, shows how the papacy of Pope Francis was not a haphazard chance but the result of many years of planning and scheming by some of the most radical leaders in the Church. Ms. Melonia traces how an obscure Latin American cardinal was elevated to the Papacy and why this elaborate scheme should concern all faithful Catholics. Pope Francis is 84 years old . As his papacy and life draws to an end many of the radical transformations that the ST Gallen group hoped to achieve will now happen at a quickening pace. The destruction of the Latin mass and a World wide synod are only the beginning of what a progressive group of cardinals who called themselves the ST Gallen Mafia hoped to achieve.
