MALACHI MARTIN
One of the reasons the sexual abuse scandal was so believable when it hit the headlines was the work of Malachi Martin. Traditional Catholics often cited Martin's words as a source of evidence for sinister dealings inside the Vatican.
It came as a shock when Robert Blair Kaiser charged Martin with seducing his wife, a charge that was leveled after Martin's death, and thus was a charge Martin could not defend himself against.
Novus Ordo Watch offers more evidence that Martin was involved in activities as early as Vatican II that did not exactly support Traditional Catholicism. They charge him with being an agent for the American Jewish Congress and instrumental, along with Cardinal Bea, in the promotion of Nostra Aetate. Read it and draw your own conclusions.
