Dear Friends and Followers galore -being Irish-culture sensitive!,
forgive my venturing into the the religious atmosphere so close to Christmas the Feast of Consumerism as noted recently by Our Holy Father, Francis #1 in his Apostolica Exhortation. The brighter reader may have noticed the coincidence here with this document which seems to confirm that the Legion of Christ is on the right track and I will explain that in several points beginning with numero uno.
# 1 By writing an Apostolic Exhortation his Holiness is appealing for more children to enter the Apostolic Schools of the Legion of Christ. Once again we have a pope that supports the works of Fr. Maciel hole-heartedly. Fr. Maciel it was who had the inspiration to open Apostolic Schools in the USA which had a long tradition of junior seminaries going back to the Middle Ages as it was thought that parents could not teach their children the rudimentaries of the Faith but that it needed to be done by priests who could secretly molest them without detection and not have to answer to anyone until they were found out and then could be transferred somewhere else for their own safety. The Legion perfected this practice because it was international and so instead of transferring the perpe-traitors to another state they could send them to other countries far away from American justice.
#2 Anyone who carefully reads the Apostolication can see that the pope is also confirmed George Bush's and the Legion's treacle down theory which is not as sticky as at first glance because we need to interpret the document according to the mind of the legislator in this case the pope who is from Argentina and has a lot of the local savoy fare or the furbizia of his Italian ancestors who came from Italy before he was born. This is precisely what Fr. Maciel and the Legion have been teaching for decades in contradiction of the Theology of Liberation which communist priests were teaching in Brazil and had to be stopped by popes in previous recyclicals. In other words the pope clearly supports the rich because they can give money to the poor and so as St. Thomas Aquinas thought the end justifies the means.
#3 has not occurred to me yet but I am working on it as I pray the Holy Rosary here in Emmitsburg, MD, the seat of the Sister Elizabeth Ann Seaton -she kept her seat on all the time- and go about sanctifying my daily activities such as cleaning the house, washing the clothes and preparing breakfast for my ungrateful son, Romulo, who just sits around the house on his duff when he is not protesting outside what used to be the former White House in Lafayette Square, Washington, DC, USA

* The New Orthodox Catholic Encyclopedia teaches us that abuse can be of many species: spiritual, emotional, physical -just eating rice and beans- psychological, psycho-social, psychosomatic, or the unmentionable which begins with an "S" -like Fr. Maciel's personal charism "Please help me, I fell down and I have a pain in my lower tummy!"
