To: HowlinglyMind-BendingAbsurdity
I often think of Malachi Martin when I hear of some abuse committed by a priest. Fr. Martin often talked about Satan working through members of the clergy even in the Vatican hierarchy. I never knew what to make of his claims but I enjoyed listening to him. One of the few individuals who spoke openly and comfortably about the presence of evil in the world. Very unPC guy.

The presence of evil, including even among some in the church, is real. Unfortunately. Mere nominal Catholic affiliation does not always mean an individual is free from dark influences and obsessions.

The tail of the devil is functioning in the disintegration of the Catholic world. The darkness of Satan has entered and spread throughout the Catholic Church even to its summit. Apostasy, the loss of the faith, is spreading throughout the world and into the highest levels within the Church. (Address on the Sixtieth Anniversary of the Fatima Apparitions, October 13, 1977)
