Amidst the dawn of a new era, The Second Vatican Council hit the Catholic Church like a precision missile, and it was as precise as it was destructive. Devout Catholics reeled and found themselves living as if in a fallout bunker, with a wasteland of irreverence consuming parish after parish around them. Inaction and indifference reigned in Rome, and abusers of children now freely stroll over the tomb of St. Peter. As Catholics we ask ourselves, how did such horrors seize our Holy See?

In Vatican Coup, independent Catholic journalist Lawrence Erickson argues that this was not an accident and documents the organized nature of this subversion. This includes examining its leading culprits and the continuing power that these nefarious organizations exert over the Catholic Church. Erickson also puts forward a plan of action to end this strangulation of the Church, without straying from its teachings.

In this book, the reader will find:

An unflinching analysis of the real motive and suspects behind Vatican II, who are hidden to the public since discussion of their actions is severely punished.

Revelations on how and why pedophiles have made their way into the highest halls of the Church.

A Cold War drama of espionage and deceit, with the Papacy playing a central role.

The conspiracy behind the sudden death of John Paul I and the mysterious resignation of Benedict XVI.

The real reason behind the disappearance of "The Vatican Girl", absent from the Netflix documentary.

A plan for a new generation of Crusaders to reclaim their Church.

Originally published by Erickson as an article on the Unz Review, Erickson's analysis lifts the shroud of mystery off of nearly seven decades of bewildering occurrences in the Vatican. With this light of truth, victory over the menacing smoke in Rome becomes merely a matter of will.
