Opus Dei's goals require power and control in the Church and secular world. They like money, lots of it, and people in high places. Opus Dei is the first and only Catholic "order" to recruit non-Catholics and non-Christians as members. One has to ask what a non-Catholic would benefit from such an association. The idea they "just want to help" is ridiculous. The organization exudes a "one world religion" mindset. Blind obedience is essential to maintain control over workers who might otherwise question erroneous ideology.
Escriva himself was a modernist revolutionary who masqueraded under the aura of conservatism. His canonization is null under Pope Urban VIII's decree that if the position of devil's advocate was removed from the canonization process, no canonization would take place. This was first done specifically for Escriva's canonization. Under Urban VIII's decree and the 1917 code of canon law, his sainthood is non-existent. The 1983 code of canon law did not abrogate prior law but simply ignored it. This is the modernist tactic: to ignore truths of the Faith without denying them and committing outright heresy.
.......and for those aberrations, and radical departures from Canon Law - which are now in the 1983 Code of Canon Law, we have none other then my great buddy (sarcasm to the max!) Edward Cardinal Egan of NY to thank for it!
He was one of the cheif canonists repsonsible ofr the revision of the code.
Ex cathedra definitions of the Roman Pontiff, such as a canonization, cannot be annulled by previous disciplinary decisions of a Pope.
The 1983 code of canon law did not abrogate prior law but simply ignored it.
Been reading another SSPX tract, eh? Actually, all the prior law was abrogated.
His Holiness Pope John Paul II, in an Audience granted to the undersigned Cardinal Prefect of the Congregation on the 7th day of February in the year 1983, approved and ratified these norms, ordering that they be published and take effect from this very day, and are to be duly and conscientiously observed by all Bishops who instruct causes of canonization and by all others whom they concern, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, even those things worthy of special mention.
