Archbishop Emmanuel Milingo, the African prelate who wed a member of the Rev. Sun Myung Moon’s Unification Church but soon repented and returned to the fold, has said that he may have been brainwashed.
“Perhaps I was the object of a kind of brainwashing,” the 72-year-old Milingo said in a series of interviews on his 95-day flirtation with the Moonies.
Milingo talked about his experience to Italian journalist Michele Zanzucchi for the book “The Fish Pulled Out of the Mud,” written at the urging of officials of the Vatican Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.
