The Catholic church want us to believe in God, Jesus, Mary etc... but why is it when people claim to have spoken to God, this same church poor water on the idea. Odd hey! Did three children speak with the mother of God in 1917 or not. If they didn't its a fraud. If they did...I found a site, which really puts the story of the 1917 Fatima apparitions into perspective. Once you realize that the witnesses to the apparitions were young children, you can quickly start to imagine the manipulation that might (would) have occurred. Our Lady would not have appeared to 3 innocent children and then frighten them with stories and visions of hell. That is absurd. Although this site is promoting a book (the one Mel Gibson has purchased for film rights) the simple synopsis of the events in Fatima make more sense than anything I have read. http://www.3rdsecretoffatima.com/
