It should be realized that the majority of Opus Dei members, like FBI spy Robert Hanson and his wife Bonnie, do not regularly inflict pain upon themselves, and there is no evidence to support that Robert Hanssen may have done so.ĭid Hanssen really take Eric O'Neill to a church bookstore and then to church? They believe that inflicting pain upon themselves helps to remind them of Jesus' Individuals like these two often live in special centers run by Opus Dei.

Also at a higher level in the Opus Dei religion, is Bonnie Hanssen's brother who is an Opus Dei priest in Rome. This status requires that she maintain a vow of celibacy while remaining a layperson. This would include one of Bob and Bonnie's daughters who is an Opus Dei Numerary. Members who are at higher levels of devotion, such as Numeraries, Numerary Assistants, and Associates are much more likely to practice mortification. Supernumeraries like Bob Hanssen do not commonly practice mortification. The Hanssen children also attended Opus Dei affiliated schools. In addition, they attend regular meetings and retreats, and they make financial contributions to Opus Dei. They are typically married men and women with families and careers, who devote Supernumeraries account for roughly 70 percent of the organization's total membership. Robert Hanssen and most of his family are at the Supernumerary level of Opus Dei membership. This was shown in the fictional movie The Da Vinci Code, and as a result it is now heavily associated with all Opus Dei members. Although, not all members of Opus Dei practice mortification, which is the infliction of pain upon oneself. Was Robert Hanssen really a member of Opus Dei like in The Da Vinci Code? The scene at the beginning of the movie Breach, where Eric (Ryan Phillippe) is taking surveillance photos, accurately depicts the type of work that he had done prior to being assigned to the Hanssen investigation. He was part of the SSG (Special Surveillance Group). His official title was Investigative Specialist. What was Eric O'Neill's official title in the FBI?Įric was not an FBI Agent. However, O'Neill was unaware of Hanssen's pornographic fantasies The real Eric O'Neill was told of Hanssen's alleged spying from the beginning.
