I'm about a quarter of the way through John Allen's Opus Dei: An Objective Look Behind the Myths and Reality of the Most Controversial Force in the Catholic Church. Allen is the Vatican correspondent for the National Catholic Reporter as well as a Vatican analyst for CNN and NPR, and the book comes highly recommend - which is why I am so crushed.
Opus Dei employs no assassins - NONE, albino or otherwise! All I'm hearing is this rhetoric about our whole lives (work, family, play, study, entertainment, formal prayer) forming a unity, all of it being an opportunity to unite ourselves with God. That's all fine...eerily familiar (New Testament?) I'm too crushed to even dwell on that though. So much promise...

No assassins? Again, Dan Brown has let me down. ;)
