The B.C. Catholic retracts (original) (raw)

On June 19, 2000 a column appeared in the official publication of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Vancouver, The B.C. Catholic. The author, Rev. Msgr. Pedro Lopez-Gallo, claimed that Freemasons worship Lucifer. A detailed refutation of Lopez-Gallo’s original claims was forwarded to the editor and can be found on this website.

A retraction The following retraction is reprinted from page 2 of the August 28, 2000 issue of The B.C. Catholic:
The Rev. Monsignor’s letter of apology can be viewed at http://freemasonry.bcy.ca/anti-masonry/apology.html. Although the B.C. Catholic did not publish corrections of the many other errors in Lopez-Gallo’s column, and they didn't actually apologize for accusing Freemasonry of worshiping Lucifer, they must be commended for taking this one small step in correcting the historical record.
