Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on the polemic with a comprehensive introduction by Rafał Łatka and Filip Musiał to the analysed source edition. The authors of the present text question the thesis about the highly incriminating character of Henryk Gulbinowicz’s conversations with functionaries of the Security Service (SB). They also emphasise that Gulbinowicz played a certain game with the Service, and it was he who defined the framework of the specific dialogue. This game was not necessarily played without the knowledge of Primate Stefan Wyszyński. The authors of the article, however, fully agree with the opinion of the book’s editors that Henryk Gulbinowicz was never a personal source of information to SB.
