An article by Magnus Lundberg about a cult-like group in Quebec, the Apostles of Infinite Love. The group has a peculiar message rooted in Catholic traditionalism. It seems to have both male and female leaders. The supreme head calls himself Pope. The message is strongly apocalyptic and centers on Marian apparitions. It´s also conservative, in the sense that the Apostles reject the "modernism" of the Catholic Church, claims that its infiltrated by Masons, and so on.
And yes, they abuse children.
The Canadian authorities raided the "monastery" of the Apostles inumerable times, and it seems their suspicions were well founded, since decades later, some of the former children - now adults - confirmed that the group was indeed abusive. Note that the "nuns" also participated in the beatings and humiliations. In the end, all charges against the Apostles were dropped, since the evidence secured by the social workers during the raids decades earlier had disappeared?!
Why are we not surprised...
Maybe it´s time for the real Virgin Mary to make a new apparition, I don´t know.
