Unfortunately a lot of parallels with Fr. Marciel and the Legionnaires of Christ. The more traditional side of the church does amazing things in terms of energizing the youth with a genuine passion for our Lord. But you start to realize there is a fine line between authentic charism and a cult-like effect which empowers predatory minds. Prayers for a fruitful outcome and healing for those effected by the corruption.

As consenting to be joined in a consecrated male female marriage from 25 February 1991, I had long meetings with (then) Monsignor Charles Scicluna as an official of the Pope's Apostolic Signatura on 31 March and April 1996 seeking his assistance to have disciplined a priest official of the Archdiocese of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, Fr Ronald McKeirnan as Faith Education Coordinator, also my superior in the role part of my calling as an anglo-catholic accredited catechist of roman catholic church role group religion, for disrespecting the discipline on intercommunion (canon 844.4).

Not obtaining this support from Mons. Scicluna, in exercising the absolute power of my simultaneous authorisations of my ensuring gift role and my insuring my identity's need of union of my consecrated male female marriage, I required of both roman catholic church and secular authorities (the police and criminal court in Brisbane, Queensland) their respect for what they considered to be their rights resulting in the criminal conviction and sentencing to a jail term of Fr McKeirnan in September 1998 for sexual abuse of nine children.
