Metz Accord edit

Latest comment: 11 years ago3 comments3 people in discussion

I added the POV template as the largest paragraph concerns the so-called "Metz Accord," an unverified conspiracy theory. No doubt it can be reformulated to report that some people think he participated in a rumored agreement, or whatever. As it is now, it's slander and hearsay. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.251.28.73 (talk) 05:24, 20 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Metz is no figment of the imagination. It has been well referenced by a number of sources. And why is nothing mentioined concerning the kgb-status of Nikodim? --Stijn Calle (talk) 09:14, 22 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

In Chiron, Yves, Paul VI: Le pape écartelé, Perrin, Paris, 1993 ISBN 226200952X p. 186 and 246 French church historian Yves Chiron gives ample historical proof of this meeting. Another source is an interview with Paul-Joseph Schmitt, Archbishop of Metz, in Le Lorrain, 9 March 1963.

Re "Interview with Paul-Joseph Schmitt, Archbishop of Metz, in Le Lorrain, 9 March 1963": according to French Wikipedia, the Catholic daily newspaper fr:Le Lorrain (quotidien) ceased publication in 1945, so this cannot be the source cited. Metz is a diocese so there are bishops of Metz rather than archbishops. These points call into question the credibility of the cited source.
