Also, how was Fr. Malachi Martin a heretic? Can you prove that?

Yes, easily. But let me say before anything else that I regard it as proof of deep ignorance of the faith that any person isn't disturbed by what he wrote.

Now if that applies to you, either you haven't read anything by him or you need to ask yourself some hard questions.

I have read everything except Vatican, Pilgrim and a title which escapes me.

If I recall, there are problems with some earlier works written under a pseudonym?

I know that Scott Peck (psychiatrist and author who went way off into the New Age after The Road Less Travelledand People of the Lie) said something about Fr. MM's honesty..others said he lied about being a priest, but his Superior recanted the lies told before he died..

The charge of being a pathological liar is pretty harsh. Who exactly says this, and why?

If I possess a deep ignorance of the Faith I am heartily sorry.

I think maybe Gertrude the Great was speaking of reading the docuмents referred to, not Fr. MM's books.

I don't think I've ever read anything he wrote, though I have listened to a few interviews with him on YouTube.

As for the docuмentation on him by Grasmeir, I looked at it and it is about what I expected: a docuмentation that didn't really provide any sources to back up its claims. And yet only a few people questioned it, most others simply flung themselves into accepting it.

As I pointed out, scores questioned the "exclusive expose" and were banned on site. Also the person who methodically countered the claims point-by-point had all of his information deleted by Mr. Grasmier.
