In this second edition of The Great Façade, co-author Christopher A. Ferrara brings the original work up to date with six new chapters addressing what Bishop Athanasius Schneider has called "the fourth great crisis" in the history of the Catholic Church. The additional chapters chronicle the attempts at ecclesial restoration by Benedict XVI and the "Francis revolution" following Benedict's mysterious resignation--including Francis's tumultuous Synod on the Family and his radical reform of the process for determining matrimonial nullity, leading to what some call "Catholic divorce" and a threat of schism on the magnitude of the Lutheran revolt of the 16th century. This new look at the 50 years following the Second Vatican Council is sure to provoke discussion and debate among Catholics concerned about the state of their Church.

From the Back Cover "There is no doubt in my mind that The Great Façade has been prophetic in the broader scriptural sense of the term. Its authors saw that Catholicism was under obvious assault, that the consequences of its rout would be dreadful, and that their failure to take up arms against a sea of enemies would be a punishable dereliction of duty. Those new to the crisis in the Church as well as old soldiers seeking to recharge intellectual batteries can make use of the book's succinct outline of the modernist positions in matters of faith and morality that so swiftly rode to dominance on the back of the Second Vatican Council."--JOHN RAO, author of Black Legends and the Light of the World"One of the most important books of the post-conciliar era, The Great Façade has earned the right to share the top shelf with such masterworks as the trilogy of Michael Davies, Romano Amerio's Iota Unum and von Hildebrand's The Devastated Vineyard. As the original publisher of this magnum opus, I am delighted that Angelico Press has brought out a new edition in which Mr. Ferrara provides six additional chapters documenting the rapid advances of 'the regime of novelty' following what he calls The Benedictine Respite. With its almost literally up-to-the-minute analysis of 'the Francis Revolution,' this work is now more important than ever."--MICHAEL MATT, Editor, The Remnant"The second edition of The Great Facade tells the story of the crumbling veneer obscuring the glorious Catholic Church, updated to the very eve of its publication. This book is a necessity for anyone who senses the failure of the attempts of neo-Catholics to cover over the cracks in this crumbling edifice of post-conciliar innovation. As always, Chris Ferrara narrates his case against the viruses of novelty and their neo-Catholic apologists with painstaking documentation and a lively and witty style."--BRIAN M. MCCALL, author of To Build the City of God"God is the Most Real Being. In contrast, the note of today's Church often seems unreality--happy talk, avoiding issues, one-sided rhetoric masking self-contradiction and dubious projects. For a while it seemed that repeated disaster might be bringing back a certain sobriety, but no such luck. In such a setting, The Great Facade is more necessary than ever as a spirited brief against the fantasies of recent decades, and an appeal to Catholics and the Church to return to what they have been, in order to become what they most truly are."--JAMES KALB, author of Against Inclusiveness"This long awaited second edition documents the 'regime of novelty' up to the present moment. It contains the most comprehensive analysis of Pope Francis's tumultuous pontificate to date."--JOHN VENNARI, Editor, Catholic Family News"[S]uperb--best analysis of the present, parlous state of the Church I have read.... A marvel of clear, careful argument, and utterly persuasive."--JEFFREY RUBIN, convert and former editor of The Conservative Book Club

33 of 35 people found the following review helpful. Essential reading on the crisis of contemporary Catholicism By Dr. Peter A. Kwasniewski This book is a masterful analysis of the condition of the postconciliar Catholic Church. In chapter after chapter, Ferrara and Woods copiously document the many deviations, innovations, ambiguities, and incoherences that have been imposed by authorities or have crept in willy-nilly, and show how they fly in the face of already-established Catholic doctrine and, indeed, common sense and sound logic. They have the courage to show how the emperor has no clothes and has tried to burn down the wardrobe, while at the same time indicating the only viable path to sanity again, namely, a resolute return to Catholic Tradition.I consider this book to be an ideal companion to H. Sire's "Phoenix from the Ashes," which presents a similar critique against a much broader historical and philosophical background. Sire has the long view, but Ferrara and Woods furnish the nitty-gritty details. Together they are a devastating one-two punch.For those who remember seeing this book, "The Great Facade," when it first appeared in 2002, it is important to recognize that this second edition contains about 250 new pages by Ferrara on the pontificates of Benedict and Francis (given as Part IV of the work). The analysis here is better than anything I've read elsewhere, and goes vastly beyond Sire, who says relatively little about these pontificates. So, even if you already own or have read the first edition, it's well worth it to get the second much-expanded edition, which has, in addition, the advantage of being more handsomely printed and bound.One little thing that may be confusing to readers: the text of Parts I, II, and III of this book are reprinted exactly as they appeared in 2002, so one is stepping into a time-warp when reading those parts and has to bear in mind the chronological perspective (e.g., one is reading about the Holy Father John Paul II and his assistant Cardinal Ratzinger). Once we get to Part IV, we are squarely in 2015. I can see why the authors decided to leave Parts I-III this way; a chronological revision would have involved a total rewriting, and the 2002 edition already has something of the status of a classic that should be left intact as an historical record.
22 of 24 people found the following review helpful. it was clear to me that these Benedictine "changes" were a return to the Tradition of better acknowledging the truths of our fai By TechAndWood "This is Truth!" As someone born three years after Vatican II, but raised by a mother who transmitted traditional truths, I found myself increasingly dismayed by so-called "devout" Catholics who seemed to regard every word and action of our Holy Pontiffs as infallible - including dancing with pagans and kissing the Koran. As a pro-life activist, however, I found myself overlooking his questionable "ecumenical dialogue," in favor of his staunch pro-life and pro-family writings. With Benedict XVI I found it curious that he returned to a "more accurate translation of the Latin in the Novus Ordo," but did not understand why they (the Vatican II Fathers) were so sloppy about it in the first place. In any case, it was clear to me that these Benedictine "changes" were a return to the Tradition of better acknowledging the truths of our faith, Christ's Lordship and our sinfulness. Then the world was blind-sided by Benedict's sudden and mysterious resignation, along with the creation of the title of "Pope Emeritus" ... God may be a "God of surprises" but never in the history of the Church has He ever instructed nor will He ever instruct his shepherds to "Lead my people into mortal sin." Yet, this is precisely what Benedict's successor does via nebulous language, the demoting of conservative orthodox Bishops, the elevation of those in favor of the pansexual ideology and Marxist liberation theology, Synods to discuss altering Church treatment of people living in sexual sin, and "cold calls." Pope Francis has condemned "gender ideology" and deplored the "attack against the family," but his actions don't measure up. He has personally told individuals who are remarried without having their first marriage annulled to receive Holy Communion; he has told the same to a Lutheran woman married to a Catholic man. He literally calls them up on the phone and invites them to "eat and drink condemnation upon their souls" with a "clean conscience." How are we who are "eyes opened wide" Catholics supposed to react to such sacrilege? How do we square this with our Lord's promise that the gates of hell will not prevail against His Church? Woods & Ferrara tell us how. They explain exactly how the Church has come to the worst state of crisis since its birth and what we - the remnant - must do about it. Don't just buy a copy for yourself; also gift a copy to your pastor. Our Lady of Fatima and Akita predicted there would come a time when Cardinal would rise against Cardinal and Bishop against Bishop. That time is now. We must pray unceasingly, sacrifice, and educate. In the end, the Two Hearts will bring about a return to Catholic Tradition.
