The St. Gallen Mafia: Exposing the Secret Reformist Group within the Church
In the mid-1990s, a clandestine group of high-ranking churchmen began gathering in St. Gallen, Switzerland. Opposed to Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, the circle plotted a revolution in stealth.
 
By 2015, their secret ached to be told. Before an audience, Cardinal Godfried Danneels joked of being a part of a “mafia.” But as explosive as Danneels’s confession was, a thick cloud of mystery still enshrouds the St. Gallen mafia.
 
In this compelling book, Julia Meloni pieces together the eerie trail of confessional evidence about the St. Gallen group. The St. Gallen Mafia sheds light on:
  • The mysteries of the 2005 conclave, where mafia members grew divided over a plan to back Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio as pope
  • The war against Benedict XVI by the mafia’s Cardinal Achille Silvestrini—and the mysterious “confessions” believed to be linked to him
  • The enigmatic, complicated relationship between the mafia’s Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini and Benedict XVI
  • The mafia writings that presaged a new Francis—and the 2013 conclave that elected him
  • Martini’s enduring role as an “ante-pope”—a precursor for Pope Francis
 
Copiously researched and grippingly narrated, The St. Gallen Mafia exposes a long-simmering plan to dramatically reshape the Catholic Church.
 
 

"I have studied the text and find it to be excellent."
-Raymond Leo Cardinal Burke

“Reading this book is as exciting as reading a novel, but everything in it is documented with a rigorous historical method . . . Julia Meloni tells the story of a real conspiracy, of which she accurately exposes the end goal, the means, the places, and the protagonists.”           
–Roberto de Mattei, historian, Lepanto Foundation

“Julia Meloni’s new book The St. Gallen Mafia provides a valuable service to readers curious about the origins of the current pontificate. Drawing on a wide range of sources, she fills in the picture of the St. Gallen Mafia, a group of influential liberal prelates who plotted for years to elect a progressive-minded pope.” 
–George Neumayr, Journalist, The American Spectator

    This book gave the missing puzzle piece of why certain prelates are behaving the way they do and why no one bothers to correct them.

    Very well substantiated theme that said mafia conspired and executed (in a Lenin like fashion) the installation of an extremely radical pope -- Francis! This is severely worrisome, that very extreme and revolutionary radicals have infiltrated the Church at the very top in order to break its oneness as well as to nullify its orthodoxy and its faithfulness to Christ;s teachings. There are plenty of reasons at this point to be very concerned about the heresies being supported by Francis and said mafia, and about the future of what up to now has been the one true Church of Christ since its birth on the day of Pentecost in 33 AD. Could it be that there is today an antipope in the Vatican?

    It is a very detailed examination of the chain of events that has brought our Catholic church to where it is today. Who knew that this "plan" went as far back as it did? I was/am surprised that the leaders of the church even back then had such modernistic attitudes.

    Thank you, Miss Meloni and TAN for such an informative, well-documented book. Meloni;s compact work is an eye-opener. She connects the dots (both well-known and obscure) to paint a picture that should horrify and infuriate any Catholic who cares about the Faith handed down from our ancestors. As an English major and fellow writer, I am impressed at how Meloni writes such clear and compelling prose and makes her point without resorting to the febrile verbiage one often finds in our overheated rhetorical culture.

    Very good book. I was sure about the sabatage of Pope Benedicts papacy as well as many other events taking place in the Vatican and outside it at the same time. I am recommending this book to all who are interested in the problems of the Church at this time

    Who rules the Church?

    Posted by Dick M. on Mar 19th 2022

    Julia Meloni. The St. Gallen Mafia: Exposing the Secret Reformist Group within the Church. Gastonia, NC: TAN Books, 2021. The modernist heresies live on with the dark forces pushing for change in the Church. The principal players were the clerical incrementalists who plotted to install heretical practices and doctrine in the wake of Vatican II. The mafia periodically assembled in St. Gallen, Switzerland to discuss their schemes without documentation and pass them on to the next generation of radical thinkers. The wayward Jesuits led the charge and finally installed Argentinian Bergolio as Pope Francis to finish the job. Meloni gathers and organizes the key links in the chain of deceit. Recommended.

    It was interesting but it did not go into detail about the current situation in the Vatican .
