No, I was expecting Art Bell to follow up on it because I'm sure he was confused by MM's statement, too, as well as most Christians paying close attention to the interview.

Well, its end was in sight until you reached back two months and tried to get the fire going. |
You're not going to believe this, but I have to tell you anyway: I didn't notice the last post was in March. I was used to looking at the General section, and this section (Crisis in the Church) doesn't move that fast. | Quote: |

Well you are preaching to a weird little choir here. Stand up at the checkout counter at your local grocery and ask how many people know who he is.

I'm not so sure that's a valid test. I can stand up at the checkout counter and ask how many people know what the Second Vatican Council is and get blank stares. But everyone I know at Traditional Mass sites (almost) has heard of MM. And their impressions are vastly different. Most priests want to steer clear of MM, I suppose it's because of his penchant for impurity in his writings. I'm beginning to see that now. He wrote at a time when that was a new fad, but coming from what was ostensibly a good priest, it wasn't right. I'll give you that. Just because the Index was out of business doesn't mean it's open season on gutter talk.

You're right, we should pray for the repose of his soul, as well as all the souls of the faithful departed.

I really don't know much about Fr.Malachi Martin, but I can't help but notice that one of the trends I observe in the people who call him double agent, adulterer, etc. is that they often tend to think that the most influence the devil has on earth is a whisper in your ear, that anecdotes of exorcisms and demonic activity are fairy tales and the reported occurrences are hoaxes, Freemasonry is basically non-existent, and that satanists are a bunch of dorky kids gathering around a campfire at night killing a rabbit every once in a while.
I could go so far as to say that they don't seriously believe in the physical existence of the devil. No one needs court documents to prove things of this nature because they are visible for all to see.
For me that's a red flag when anything regarding religion is concerned, let alone the reputation of an EXORCIST.

Well said.
