Does anyone have any new info/perspective on the Legionaries of Christ? I know they are a true cult within the Catholic Church, they are reportedly abusive to their fellow priests and practice within their ranks a forced separation between their devoted priests and freedom (i.e., the lower-rank priests are captive against their will.)
There are tales of woe of young priests escaping in the middle of the night with just the clothes on their backs and avoiding main roads during their escape until they can get to a place they feel is safe.
I have met ex-Legionaries and they complain about everything from false-imprisonment (being held in a seminary against their will) to sexual abuse by older priests.
I would like to hear from others who are aware of this odd sect and any information they may have gathered by ex-clerical members.
Does anyone thing the pope will eventually excommunicate the power-abusers within this powerful sect?
