TFP is a cult.
That is all.
Precisely. From what I recall of my exposure to them some years ago, they really like to separate young people from their families - especially Traditional Catholic families.
Those are what they like to say about the TFP because they couldn't find any other
fault in them, nor could they find any heresy in their publications.
Therefore they have to pick on little things, or just make up lies.
Regarding the rumour that Dr Plinio treated himself like a god:
If Dr Plinio was such a proud man that he desired followers to worship himself,
then that kind of attitude should have been reflected in his writings and speeches.
He would have always tried to promote his own greatness, to glorify himself , to let
more people admire and worship himself.
But the reality is his writings and speeches only focus on anti communism,
crisis of the Church, love for God and Our Lady, and Fatima.
Where did you find any self promotion and self glorifying in his writings ???
Besides, Dr Plinio gave up marriage to serve the Church. Is this the
behaviour of a selfish man ??
