That is correct Martin Sheen Aka Ramon Esteves was a great admirer of Archbishop Fulton Sheen
Hey, wasn't that the one who was on the Tee-Vee?
I wonder if anyone is a "fan" of an archbishop who isn't on TV. The point I'm making is that people tend to admire whatever or whoever is famous simply for the sake of that fame, sadly enough. Something tells me that Abp. Sheen had many more "fans" than Cardinal Billot and Cardinal Merry del Val combined, both of whom were relatively well-known, such is the nature of the ( Jєωιѕн ) beast, the entertainment industry.
Abp. Sheen had something that appealed to American Catholics in the 1950's. I have an older friend who swears by him. But I wonder what younger people of today would think, if they would be inspired by him in the same way. I watched some clips of the show and the man weirded me out. First of all, he is so hammy he makes Rod Steiger look subtle. Whatever he was doing on that show certainly doesn't embody the spirit of Christ, in my opinion. He looked like a vampire that just popped out of its crypt and drank a bunch of coffee, pacing back and forth, ranting and raving...
I find that show disturbing. Of course, Abp. Sheen had some troubling views as well. There's a clip of him on YouTube celebrating how John XXIII "opened the windows" of the Church to communists -- go find it yourself, I'm too lazy. I posted it here a while ago.
