Anyone who logs on to the Legionaries of Christ website today will get a perfect example of what airbrushing is about. There is not a mention of their founder to be seen. Up to two years ago the man's name was on every page. He was revered as a saint. His name is not even mentioned on their home page when they refer to the beginnings of their organisation.
If the congregation/organisation was so fooled by its leader how can they claim to have any sort of discernment when it comes to talking about God? One might ask were the people in 'leading positions' fooled or were they aware of the behaviour of their founder.
Will there be an audit and thorough investigation to the wealth of the Legionaries of Christ? Have they charity status in Ireland?
But unfortunately the behaviour of Macial is not unique to his organisation.
Did John Paul II know about what was going on? Watching Legionaries prance about at church events was always odious.
And now the Vatican secretary of state, Tarcisio Bertone, says that it is homosexuality that is linked to paedophilia and not celibacy. Does the man know the can of worms he is opening by making this comment.
