Our Father [Maciel] who art in bed, a Naive and Sentimental Dubliner in the Legion of Christ
OUR FATHER [MACIEL], WHO ART IN BED I have rarely encountered such a fair, balanced and honest response to religious abuse and the perpetrator of such a wicked attack on the human spirit. Lennon's memoir of his years with the LCs is not only 'all that' but, through the use of song lyrics, Hesse's novel SIDDHARTHA, his account is both lyrical and emotionally compelling.

Legion of Christ Foundation in Ireland, Official Video
A new Video was just posted on YouTube by the Legion narrating the story of the Legion of Christ foundation in Ireland, and starring some of the first Irish members; naturally, Paul Lennon, Declan Murphy and Jack Keogh are not mentioned. But this is great visual background for reading and comparing two memoirs, the blogger's and Jack Keogh's Writing Straight on Crooked Lines

[video] Maciel, the Psycopath
People have been trying to figure out Marcial Maciel for decades. Even after his death he continues to be an enigma. But one paradigm may help us understand him a bit better.
Here is the whole enchilada
You may want to view it in small doses

Legion of Christ dragging feet on Compensation of Maciel Victims
Remember Our Father Maciel is in Kindle at Amazon
-----
Will somebody tell me if anyone has been already compensated for sexual abuse at the hands of Fr. Marcial Maciel
I am aware of a couple of cases which are being discussed with with Legion but payments seems to be delayed. Then, of course, if there is a gag order -Legion and Scientology specialize in this!- we will never know what has happened; or we will have to take the Legion's name; and, at this stage, the Legion does not really have a name.
I learn that Fr. Raymond Cosgrave, LC, is still doing his job as Legion troubleshooter, damage control expert, cajoler and threatener. In this he appears to be an example of a Legionary who has really assimilated the "Spirit of the Founder" in the worse sense of the word. May God forgive him.

Legion Leaders Complicit in Cover up of Maciel's Sexual Misconduct?
Fr. Luis Garza for years has been trying to separate himself from Maciel and his abuses, minimizing his knowledge and power in the Legion; although Fr. Garza has been virtually in charge of the order since 2006 and was a close collaborator with Maciel for decades before!
