Oops Dei is hardcore cult within the Catholic Church. And before anyone replies with "the Catholic Church is already a cult", know that Opus Dei makes conventional Catholicism look like a casual bake sale.
Opus Dei frequently recruits Catholic teens through 'youth clubs' to be 'numeraries'. They specifically target smart kids who are emotionally vulnerable and/or neuro-divergent, and groom them to join their movement. The goal is to get them fully subservient and brainwashed by the time they are in their late teens. At that point they sequester them in sanctioned housing where every aspect of their lives can be controlled, and they push them hard through college. This is also when they are inducted into the movement as numeraries and pushed into a life of celibacy in complete service of the movement. (There is another type of Opus Dei members called 'super-numeraries' who are Catholics recruited as adults after they are married. They are also exploited by the movement, but not to the same degree.)
After college numeraries remain trapped in this housing and lifestyle. Opus Dei then sends them out to work in conventional jobs (usually higher-paying ones to maximize their income theft). And all of the income the bring in is taken by the movement for their nefarious plans. The relationships of numeraries are totally controlled, to the point where any friends or family members who express concern about their well-being are cut out of their lives. Any emotional trauma or mental illness they have is left untreated, and is exploited by the movement to keep them subservient.
A numerary's life is controlled utterly by the movement. As mentioned before, all their income is given to the movement. Their daily schedules are completely controlled. Self-flagilation (not in a fun sexy way) is encouraged to keep them fully-ridden and obedient. And when possible, they are pushed into working with Catholic teens to perpetuate the recruitment and grooming process.
Opus Dei is a fucking cancer on society. It doesn't surprise me at all that they are involved in Project 2025.
Scalia and Thomas are both members of that cult. Why they are both so fucking stupid.
So they're breeding the assassin character from the Angels and Demons book?
Am I crazy or was that actually Opus Dei in that movie/book?
Da Vinci Code had Opus Dei assassin.
Angels and Demons has mercenary assassin.
Anyone's 2024 politics Bingo card have "IDK, some DaVinci Code shit" on it?
I actually have one of those "youth clubs" close to where I live (also close to a university). It's this huge, modern building full of what looks like hotel rooms from the outside. Only ever saw female teenagers and older ladies there, but yeah it's hard to get a feeling from the outside of what it is about. For a long time I imagined it was like a correction house or something like that.
Thank's for the context!
