Hauska jesuiitta- Malachi Martin

Isä Malachi Martin on melko kiinnostava persoona, oppinut, eksentrinen ja todella vastavirtaan ja yleistä hanhenmarssi tahdin terroristi.

Malachi Brendan Martin (1921 – 1999) was a Catholic priest, theologian, writer on the Catholic Church, and professor at the Vatican's Pontifical Biblical Institute. He held three doctorates and was the sole author of sixteen books.

Malachi Martin wrote in 1981:

a church with depopulated seminaries, politico bishops, lipsticked and mini-skirted nuns, bewildered lay people, plus a Vatican that housed Communist moles, clerical financial wizards, career diplomats, Marxist prelates, a brothel, overworked exorcists, hostile bureaucrats, some silent good people, and a hard-core 37 per cent of clerics and people who yearned for the church Paul VI had smothered.

But the "decline and fall" of the Catholic Church remained his obsession. An opponent of the new rite Mass instituted by Pope Paul, Martin vocally opposed female altar-servers, believing they were a Trojan horse leading eventually to women priests.
