And of course the non Catholics should not believe Chiniquy because;
Yes, the fundamentalists and the atheists are ranged on the same side, using Chiniquys lies to attack the Catholic Church. Yet, something inexplicable deters the fundamentalists from realizing that the mere fact of siding with atheists ought to show them they are on the wrong side.
Now there's a legitimate argument...
Since we know that what Chiniquy said about the Catholic bible experience is true, as we see it happening today, there's no reason to doubt anything else Chiniquy has claimed...
“Chiniquy is not to be believed and rejected by Catholics because he was ex-communicated from the Catholic religion for being a ‘schismatic’,,,exposing the lies of the Catholic religion...”
No, Chiniquy is not to be believed because he was untrustworthy as even some Protestants admitted in his own day. To me it is much like the case of Maria Monk. I can see where stupid, poorly educated, generally ignorant Protestants could be suckered by her bizarre claims - after all they were too ignorant to know any better. But after Maria Monk’s daughter published a work exposing her mother as a fraud and chose to become a Catholic herself, how could anyone believe in her mother’s fraud???
