Bp Fulton Sheen
« on: Today at 09:47:19 AM »
Am I the only one who has always gotten weird vibes from him?
Even before I learned about his embrace of Vatican II I found him uncomfortable
to watch or listen to. At first I attributed it to his very dramatic, affected manner of
speaking but I sensed an Elmer Gantry element to him

As in "lavender" vibes?  Absolutely.  Master Thespians, i.e. those who are most adept at acting, very often have that "flair", that certain, oh "je ne sais quoi".

I too have always found him to have a "creepy" vibe, for lack of a better word.

He was a modernist. It's very obvious. Many Catholic today are too easily fooled by popularity. Ripperger is another good example. (NO orders so unreliable for exorcism, plus the Church was never public about these matters in such a manner as he is).
