VATICAN CITY (The Blaze/AP) — The Vatican will be displaying 100 select documents from its Secret Archives at an unprecedented exhibit next year, including previously unpublished papers on its World War II-era pope.
The exhibit is the first of its kind and will likely shed light on some important questions surrounding the Church’s involvement and opinions surrounding World War II, the Armenian genocide and other important events and occurrences. According to the Archives’ web site:
The activity of the Archivio Segreto Vaticano pursues two main goals. One is to protect its documentary heritage and ensure its preservation, while the other is to provide scholars with research tools to enhance access to this treasure trove of Church activity conserved in documents spanning thousands of years.
The Vatican No. 2, Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, unveiled plans for “Lux in Arcana: The Vatican Secret Archives Revealed” at a briefing Tuesday.
The exhibit, which runs from February to September at Rome’s Capitoline Museums, marks the first time such precious documents, manuscripts and parchments have been allowed out of the Vatican vaults for view by the general public. The occasion is the Archive’s 400th anniversary.
Watch the below video to take a first-hand look inside the archives:
Officials said some of the previously unseen documents concern Pope Pius XII, accused by some Jews of failing to speak out enough to stop the Holocaust.

Report Post »I hate to tell you but it is not anti-catholic bias or are just one of those liberal trolls that calls anyone a racist that you disagree with. I could not care less about what the catholic church does or does not do and if you think she was anti-catholic then you should read my earlier post and I am not anti-catholic I am not catholic or anti-catholic anything. However, the truth is the truth and the truth has no agenda. What she said and what I said was just plain historical truth. As for the council of nicea, based on the constatine‘s letter to the council in 321 AD the only thing that the council did was to try and take the Jewishness of a Jewish religion by changing the Sabbath and many other traditions to separate it from the the Jews while the Jews and the People of the Way were following God’s Laws (try getting a copy of the letter to the council that constatine wrote in 321, it states it quite clear). And even if the catholic church and constatine thought that it was big and powerful enough to change what was “God written” (through men) then you and they both have another thought coming to them. In spite of your belief God kept the truth of His Teachings intact with the basic truths. I am getting a good laugh right now thinking that the catholic church is more powerful than God and that they could change what God says and does. ROFL

I‘m definitely not a liberal or a troll and I certainly don’t think anyone who disagrees with me is a rascist. Actually, quite the contrary. I enjoy a good debate and hearing other people’s opinions. I just don’t like it when people start attacking the Church for no apparent reason. I’m just a guy who loves God and loves the Church He established. Yes – God did establish a Church – one Church. The One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. What Church do you belong to?

Posted on July 5, 2011 at 9:22pm@Sound The Trumpet In Zion: Have you ever heard of the Bible? Let me give you brief introduction to the beginning of the Catholic Church…Matt.16:18-19: “And I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of the netherworld will not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.” Jesus started the Church, and named Peter to be the first Pope. Who started your church? Some guy in a leisure suit and a bad haircut? I’m proud to be Catholic and a member of the only true Church. Stand up for yourself and tell us what church you belong to.
Constantine didn’t start the Church. He just changed the law so that it was no longer illegal to be a Christian. Maybe you should visit the archives where you could learn that St. Ignatius, who was a disciple of John (of the Gospel John), coined the phrase “Ekklesia Katholicos” which means Catholic Church, or universal church.
Honestly, I don’t know where to put the blame for poorly educated people like you. Are you so gullible that you believe something a semi-literate, backwoods, snake-handling preacher tells you? Or are you just hateful and bigoted? I guess you can be all at once.

Posted on July 5, 2011 at 9:22pmThis is probably not the forum to try and answer every Protestant accusation against the Catholic Church based upon isolated quotations from the Bible, so I’m not going to try. The bottom line is for all of those Christians who believe in Sola Scriptura (i.e., the doctrine that Scripture alone is the sole authority), you need to answer the question – “Where did my Bible come from?” Who determined what Gospels, Letters, etc. were inspired by God and by what authority was that determination made? It’s unfortunate that so many Protestant Christians proclaim the authority of the Bible, yet they refuse to ackowledge that it was the Catholic Church that gave us the Bible.

Posted on July 5, 2011 at 9:06pmSouthern Rebel – Please keep your anti-Catholic bias in check. Please remember that what you refer to as “God’s Word” was determined by the Catholic Church in the 4th century at the council of Nicea. There were many other letters, gospels, etc. that were written by disciples and others who followed Our Lord. However, not all of those writings were inspired by God and thus were not included in the Canon of the Bible that you read today.

“The is where the history of the early church resides. Before there was the Bible, there were the first Christians and Apostles who knew Jesus himself. To those who say the Bible is the only source of Christian information, I say you are missing more than 300 years of true Christianity.”
I have heard a LOTof BS in my 50+ years and I have to say that your statements is one of the best! Just on the crazy notion that you are serious in what you say I will have to say this. The Old Testament which is originally called the Hebraic Covenant was written thousands of years ago. The New Testament which was originally known as the Renewed Covenant was written between 30 AD and approimately 90 AD. The catholic church was started by constatine around 300 AD. When constatine started what is the called the catholic church was when he decided to merge what was left of the First Church and his religion which was the worship of the sun god. To make it acceptable to his sun worshipers he combined the two and made what is technically a totally different religion. This can be seen in the staff that they carry in their parades, it is in the shape of a cross with a sun burst on it to signify the sun god. Jesus who’s name is actually Yeshua was a Jew who repeatedly quoted from the Hebraic Covenant (Old Testament). If you think what you stated is fact then you were one of those DUMB enough to have voted for obama and and DUMB enough that you intend to vote for him again in

Posted on July 5, 2011 at 10:58pmLike much of what is reported the Inquisition you think you know is more Hollywood than fact. Would you guess that the “press” of that time did any better than today’s?
e.g
After the Moors were driven out of Spain, many of the Muslims remaining were still loyal to Islam… sleeper cells, if you will. Conversion by the sword was common and a person forced into Islam could be broken and turned into a fanatical convert.
One of the main responsibilities of the Inquisitor towering over the court was to restrain the judges. Do you think the typical court of that time was a picnic resembling small claims court in Iowa???
During the Inquisition there were no more death sentences than in Texas in an average year.
Many of the “sentences” were similar to the punishments given in a Confessional. Granted, at that time that could have someone crawling around one of the great cathedrals on what would soon become bruised and cut knees, but they were a tough people of a different time.
There are a lot of anti-Catholics here, I notice, but we share a lot of common goals. (Look at the Catholics that served Reagan with distinction and helped shape his presidency.

Posted on July 6, 2011 at 9:57amAmazing how people just spew out negative information as if they know their history. The Spainish inquisition was a civil war between the Christian Spaniards and the Muslim Moors. After 800 years of Muslim rule the Christian Spaniards had had enough of the Muslim rule and set out to settle the conflict one way or another. Brutal, yes but it was common practice by all sides during that time. Not just the Christians. Spain celebrates the liberation of their nation from the Muslim every year since just like we do our civil war reenactments.

Posted on July 6, 2011 at 12:41pmThe Inquisition was wrong but understandable as the Church was on the defensive after the Reformation got rolling in the mid 1500′s in North Western Europe.. In it‘s nearly 200 years of executing heretics it’s estimated that around 2,500 “heretics’ were executed. That’s 2,500 too many in the name of a religion but when compared to the tens of millions killed in the name of the secular “religions” of the last century, Communism and Nazism, I think the Church was lenient in punishing those who wanted to destroy it. Let’s not forget the enormous contributions the Roman Catholic Church has made in charity, theology, ethics, philosophy, art, architecture, music, education and much much more int he past nearly 2,000 years since Pentecost.

Posted on July 6, 2011 at 4:57pmAbout ten years ago (give or take a few years), the records of the various inquisitions were released by none other than the current pope when Cardinal Ratzinger. Firstly, anyone who comments on the Inquisitions should first know that historically, the inquisitions were controlled by the kings, and not the Catholic Church. When you read history, you’ll find that many popes wrote to the kings (the only thing they could do) to stop the tortures (not as large in number, nor horrors as said by “historians”). The Church had no power over the inquisitions, and if she did, you’ll find the prisoners treated better than any modern prison. Additionally, those brought to the inquistions were considered traitors, and not only heretics. The kings considered any religious opposition a break in the garment of his country (and rightly so: they were usually revolutionaries). Thus the harsh punishments.
The real numbers of those killed are far smaller than any “historian” will tell you. Over 400 years of the Spanish Inquisition, only about 4000 people were killed. The first people to have problems with the inquisitions were those of the Godless 17th,-21st centuries. You can’t expect an honest judgment on the CC from those who hate the CC. It’s like you judging the Jews based off of what the Nazis said about them. That’s not an honest judgment!

The Catholic Church has records going back thousands of years to the days of Rome that no one has seen, not even 95% of the priest in Rome.

I think the Catholic Church should open all of it’s archives, so that forgiveness and healing can begin. If people really knew about the atrocities that the Catholic Church committed in the “Name of Christianity ” there would be more running from the church. Little by little pieces of information are coming to light and people are leaving the church because the Catholic Church is not what it seems.

Posted on July 6, 2011 at 1:27pmThe only way the Catholic Church can heal its self and the people is to give the information that’s needed, for that healing and forgiveness to take place. The information, or (History) that is out there will give you an insight of what took place in the church for thousands of years without laying claim to blame. The Catholic Church wants it’s people to return, then open the church’s records, let the records speak for themselves and let the people make an honest religious choice without lies. Now is the time for truth, forgiveness and healing. I Stand With Israel…Am Israel

Posted on July 6, 2011 at 11:47amWhy is the Blaze so anti-Catholic? Where is the source? Society? I’m really scared about it. I’m not anti-Baptist, anti-Northern Baptist, anti-Southern Baptist, anti-American Baptist.

Posted on July 6, 2011 at 1:10pmThe book sounds interesting. More information is always better than less. No doubt most of the archives are mind-numbingly boring. But there must be some real page turners in there that no one would expect. Too bad they don’t just digitize the whole thing and let us do computer searches to find whatever we want to find! Imagine the lost libraries throughout human history that we’ll never be able to see. They should digitize it all and spread it around to preserve it.The book sounds interesting.

Posted on July 7, 2011 at 4:12pmThey should open every archive for all respect-able people. Keep it protected sure, but there’s no reason to keep this stuff secret anymore. God helps humans solve giant problems by bringing things into the ‘Light of Day’ for all to see. That is His Way. The church should do the same.

Posted on July 5, 2011 at 10:56pmThe new testament wasn’t even written then. It wasn’t compiled for another 300 years. also, it says traditions of MEN. tradition that works against the teaching of God. Tradition in general isn’t condemned, if fact, it’s praised.
Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle. 2:15 thess KJV
