Madoff and Maciel

Madoff and Maciel -- hmmm.
Very thought provoking.
Too harsh or good comparison?
What do you think?

I can tell you that I know a lot of RC folks and they are among some of the best people I come into contact with. I hope they come out of this stronger Catholics but, at the same time, accepting that the founder was flawed. He was not "Nuestro Padre".

Right now there is a lot of nothing being said.
It is hard to tell if RC and the Legion are in shock, building an alternate reality or what.
Where I work (Soutenus - you know where) there is a wall of silence and exclusion. You would think we could all be on the same page now.
Many people are unsettled because of this.

From the article, "The Legionaries of Christ worked outside of local bishops. That way they are not subject to oversight and accountability."

That always seemed wrong to me.

Regnum Christi is a cult. It is more obvious now than ever. They are like lost children. So sad.

This is the first comment I have ever left. Let me know if you get this.
This article is astounding in the comparison and frightening.
I sincerely hope Catholics distance themselves from this founder and figure out how to move forward. In doing so, they put into practice some measures so that this can never happen again
