Lately, I’ve seen more and more Catholics online—a loud minority, to be sure—casting suspicion on the Divine Mercy revelations and devotion—questioning its legitimacy and authenticity, and in some cases, warning others to stay away from it entirely.
I think part of the difficulty is that there are some similarities between St Faustina's writings and those of a Poish nun who founded a movement called the Mariavites, who were declared heretical, I believe by Pope Pius X. They later developed into a very odd group who believed that intercourse between bishops and nuns would create children free of original sin. The Mariavites still exist, and I have wondered if there was any influence on Sister Faustina.
