Episode 112: The Danger of Opus Dei with Gareth Gore

[@kaylap81]

I finished the book yesterday. I had already been looking into Leonard Leo and project 2025 for about a year now and this book really tied up some of my theories on how the catholic church was wrapped into everything.

[@teena1534]

Thank you for spreading the TRUTH. I lived in this mafia for 15 yrs having been coerced and 'guided' into joining at barley 16. I was trafficked to another country and never received a single penny for my for my labour of 12-16 hour days 365 days a year. I live with cPTSD and other aspects of mental health and conditions experienced as a result of my time in Opus Dei. Opus Dei needs to acknowledge the harm and damage done to countless ex members, ask forgiveness and make atonement. If they were in reality 'Christian' they would do this without having to be shamed int it. Thank you Gareth for your fearless ok in exposing this.

[@grantsmythe8625]

I watched a video yesterday with....I think....Frank Schaeffer and it was alledged that there is a connection between Trump, whom I believe is America's Anti-Christ, and Opus Dei via Leonardo Leo and/or others. I am a 71 year old Christian man and though I don't want to come across as a "superstitious" Christian, I find it hard not to believe that Trump has the support of the unseen but very present forces of Darkness. Anyone else who's done all that he's done would have been put away years ago and yet Trump may well be president again!

[@enriquembomio3686]

Well, I live in that "mafia", as you say, for over 22 years and what you say is simply bullshit. I feel sorry for you, but your mental damage has nothing to do with Opus Dei, bro 😉

@enriquembomio3686 Interesting response from someone who has not lived my life or known my experiences. I, on the other hand, have my lived experience and know how deeply affected i was by this. I'm assuming you are OD so permit me to enlighten you. I tell the truth, this book is absolutely true, and no amount of you trying to invalidate me or any other ex member will make what you say about me be taken seriously. We see you for what you are. We know how you operate , and you will no longer silence us. Goodbye.

I've met a couple of those "members " who swore poverty and whatever else they do and they were among the wealthiest "poor" people that I have ever seen. Of course some of them were obviously targeted when they were young students but only because their parents were comparatively wealthy and were inclined to do whatever they were told by priests.

This was an excellent interview. Gareth frames this entire issue in such an understandable and tenable way. We, the people, have the power to put a stop to this agenda and everything that Opus Dei stands for. But it requires awareness and education. Thank you for doing your part to contribute to that solution.

This "agenda", as you say, was founded almost one hundred years ago and it is ment to last till the end of time. The communists tried to stop it and even some catholics demonized it since the very beginning to no success. I wonder why? Maybe it's because fighting Opus Dei is the same as fighting God? 😉

I started looking into this a couple years ago when my MAGA brother told me that all the problems in the US stem from the “breakdown of the family.” Since he’s never had an original thought, I immediately started looking for the source. Far-right support of “family values” is not an organic movement.

[@goodboybupbup]

The new iteration of the Templars are the Knights of Malta. Think of them as the Church Militant. General Mike Flynn and Eric Prince who founded the mercenary group Blackwater (he’s Betsy DeVos’ brother. She was Trump’s Sec of Education) are members of the Knights of Malta. This group is ridiculously wealthy and are far reaching. Scary organization!
