Josemaria Escriva was not guilty of such horrid behavior. You should be careful about what you write. Josemaria was canonized, after a thorough, lengthy, and detailed investigation of his life. Roman Catholicism is not sado/masochistic. I hope you will find a friend or good book/s that can inform you better. Best regards, Karen Yes, Stuart Crawford, you are wrong.

What I and My friend Brian saw made us feel sick. There were seriously sick masochists crawling along the streets with their hands and feet bleeding and they even had a Jesus, who we all know should be called Josiah (Hebrew) not Jesus (Greek)carrying a real (as in heavy) wooden cross followed by more sickos actually flogging him.I've only descibed the worst but there was plenty more of this sick and degenerate behaviour. Let's face it Sado/Masochism is an integral part of Roman Catholicism I could be wrong here but was'nt this the creep also guilty of buggering literally hundreds of boys in his lifetime which was of course covered up by the Roman mafia.

Escriva was the easiest person in the world to become friends with but I do not think he ever met Pinochet, and I am not aware that he met Franco either!

During and after the Spanish Civil War, Franco's supporters went about bashing what they called "Judeo-masonic's" (i know, doesn't sound right); these supporters then had families and joined the Opus Dei, which, as it turns out, is Spain's version of Freemasonry!

If you are Spanish and not Al Queade, then you display a woeful ignorance of your own history. your article is stupid propaganda I suspect written by smart al quaeda who know how to turn history into a series of lies.

I don't know many other catholic organizations so public as that one. You have plenty of websites (including www.opusdei.org) and news about them everywhere... ad least in Italy.
