Opus Dei was once just a conspiracy theory. But the organization has been successfully outed. The Bishop of LA (Gomez?) openly says he is from Opus Dei. Some of whose members served on the staff of the Spanish fascist dictator, Gen. Franco.

One problem is their untrained "lay" priests, and countless undercover converts. All dedicated to carrying out their agenda ... under cover, in major government and other jobs.

Worse than the "Knights of Columbus."

"Father" John Corapi of, formerly, EWTN/EWRN, was a former shyster Las Vegas accountant (!). For years, he couldn't find any bishop to acknowledge him as a priest. He eventually found one, if memory serves. But ended up claiming Opus Dei as his "order."
