SARAH SIGNS THE APPEAL, THEN REVOKES. THE WAY IT HAPPENED.
8 Maggio 2020
Marco Tosatti
Dear friends and enemies of Stilum Curiae, we receive this communiqué from Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò, and we share it with you. The communiqué evidently follows the statement made by Card. Robert Sarah in Infovaticana.
STATEMENT May 8, 2020
Subject: His Eminence Cardinal Robert Sarah’s withdrawal of official support from the “Appeal for the Church and the World,” released yesterday, May 7.
At this time of serious crisis that the Church and the world are passing through, it is my wish to abide by an attitude of deep charity towards my brother in Christ, Cardinal Robert Sarah, whom I immediately forgave for the grave wrong he committed against the truth and my person. Genuine charity, however, cannot disregard the truth, since it has its foundation in it. I therefore have the duty, also for the sake of fraternal correction, to make known the series of events as they occurred, with regard to Cardinal Sarah’s signing of the Appeal.
Monday, May 4, at 4:00 p.m.
I had a telephone conversation with His Eminence, Cardinal Sarah. The call was recorded and lasted 6 minutes and 25 seconds.
Regarding the text of the Appeal, the Cardinal said: “It seems to me a very serious matter. I think that this Appeal will do much good, because it will make us reflect and take a position: I agree that it should be published as soon as possible.”
I then asked His Eminence if he intended to sign it. The Cardinal replied: “Yes, I agree to put my name to it, because this is a fight that we must engage in together, not only for the Catholic Church but for all mankind.”
Thursday, May 7
At 8:43 a.m. I telephoned His Eminence, to ask him if he had a telephone number for Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Mueller, which he later kindly sent to me by SMS. During this telephone call, which lasted 4 minutes, Cardinal Sarah made no reference to his wish to withdraw his signature.
At 3:00 p.m. I began to send out the text of the Appeal with the list of signatories, including Cardinal Sarah, to press agencies, blogs and various newspapers.
At 5:48 p.m. I received a text message from the Cardinal, but only became aware of it about an hour and a half later. At the time the message was sent, I was totally absorbed in the work of disseminating the Appeal and I did not see the arrival of His Eminence’s message and therefore was not able immediately to become aware of its contents.
At 7:37 p.m. the Cardinal telephoned me asking if I had seen his message. I said no.
This is the text of the message sent to me by the Cardinal: “Dearest Excellency, as I am still working in the Roman Curia, some friends of mine advised me not to sign your proposed Appeal. Perhaps it would be better to remove my name this time. I am very sorry. You know my friendship and my closeness to you. Thank you for your understanding. Robert Card. Sarah.”
The cardinal informed me in his telephone call that he intended to remove his name from the list of signatories. I was terribly sorry and pointed out to His Eminence that the Appeal and the signatures had already been circulated “universally” for more than four hours. The conversation ended without His Eminence requesting or suggesting any solution.
One could, for example, have agreed on a “joint statement” in which the Cardinal’s decision to withdraw his signature was made public. None of this was done. We cordially said goodbye expressing our esteem and mutual support. Faced with this de facto situation, to which neither he nor I were able to find a solution, I took the liberty of encouraging His Eminence, pointing out to him how much his support of the Appeal would be of comfort and encouragement to a great many faithful.
With surprise and deep regret, I then learned that His Eminence had used his twitter account, without giving me any notice, to make statements that cause serious harm to the truth and to my person.
I am very sorry that this matter, which is due to human weakness, and for which I bear no resentment towards the person who caused it, has distracted our attention from what must seriously concern us at this dramatic moment.
I confirm that the name of His Eminence Cardinal Robert Sarah has been promptly removed from the official website of the Appeal, as can be seen at: www.veritasliberabitvos.info.

Robert G. is wrong. The Catholic church today is, has been and always will be the Body of Christ,sorely wounded and afflicted always by the malice of the prince of this world, it is still the church Jesus founded and to which he promised that the gates of hell would not prevail against it. That baloney about the church going off the rails as Protestants often put it is simply one of the arrows in satan’s quiver.
THE Church HAS GONE OFF THE RAILS, AS YOU PUT IT, BUT SHE HAS NOT DEFECTED, AS WE HAVE OUR LORDS PROMISE THAT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN. THE PRESENT CROWD IN THE VATICAN WILL ONE SOON BE WASHED AWAY AND HOLY CHURCH WILL BECOME PRISTINE ONCE AGAIN.
Come volevasi dimostrare, credibilità adesso tutta da recuperare per figure che erano fondamentali nella lotta contro l’attuale chiesa relativista. Un appello sui cui non si sentiva il bisogno. Complimenti mons. Viganò…

I am an American and non-practicing Catholic who advocates a 2nd Reformation of Christianity. Men seeking power and others seeking to destroy the young church, corrupted the teaching of Jesus in the first century after His death. That corruption continues to this day.
