Emmanuel_Milingo

If you are ever bored, just have a quick squint at the wiki of Emmanuel Milingo.

What a career!

I quote: -

Pope Paul VI consecrated him as a Bishop for the Archdiocese of Lusaka, the capital of Zambia. He served there from 1969 to 1983.

In the 1970s, while still in
Africa, Archbishop Milingo became an exorcist of charismatic tendency, who was criticized for exorcising in other dioceses without permission and for using all kinds of non-approved charismatic rituals and alleged exorcist prayers, instead of the centuries-old officially approved exorcism rite in the Roman Ritual.

In the 1990s Archbishop Milingo was counted among the "far-right" critics of the institutional Church. During this time, he became well-known in
traditionalist and sedevacantist circles for a speech he gave at the "Fatima 2000" International Conference on World Peace, held on 18-23 November 1996, in which he charged that the current state of the Catholic hierarchy included high-ranking members who were protecting and/or were formally involved in devil worship.

He became a supporter of Reverend
Sun Myung Moon and his Unification Church. In May 2001, at the age of 71, he married Maria Sung, a 43-year-old Korean acupuncturist, in New York.

and it goes on....
