Father Anonymous

Description YT

Extract From A Sermon:
//This was part of a sermon made by a Catholic Priest, that was given to Anonymous to use.
Please Note: Priest's are REQUIRED to declare their status : hence it is signed - Father Anonymous - it is being distributed amongst the clergy//

Transcipt:
I must clarify, we are not all any religion, or against any individual
religion.

The writer of this is a Catholic, who has close friends who strongly
disagree theologically.

A friend, oldest, Jewish, now a Rabbi.

Many agnostic or athiest friends.

Christian Protestants and Puritans, dear in the heart as well.

Now, politics? The writer here, highly conservative, but with hard-left
friends.

And most lay between.

No Nazis. No Socialists. Just honest, regular folks.

We lay in the spectrum of theology and politics from one reasonable end to the other.

But none of us want to hurt you.

We want to help.

We're you're friends.

If you want to come out of the Church of Scientology, don't be afraid. You have friends.

We won't assault you with demands to convert.

There is the Free Zone if you want that.

If you get curious to our faiths, we can educate.

And if you want to be an agnostic or athiest, fine, it is your right.

And it is better than being enslaved to a so-called Church that demands 'mandatory donations' to get you to the point of learning the core tenets.
When I accepted to be a Catholic, I spent no money, I read biblical
passages, and the works of our saints, and no one threatened those that
published such things freely.

I have read the Twelve Pillars of Buddha.

The many Sutras of Hindus and Buddhists.

And I was never made afraid.

I was offered learning freely.

I was even encouraged by all to be enlightened to their path, and to know what they had to offer me.

What they had to enlighten my mind, and bring my soul to safety.

And I never spent a single cent.

But the Church of Scientology demanded I pay.
You are smart, reasonable people, and they'll rob you of your reason.

Ask yourself, please, why they demand money for enlightenment and others don't?
You are so much more beautiful and amazing than to be worth a price set for you by other humans.

If you're afraid, it's okay.
Many will do what it takes to make you safe from these enemies of freedom.
You are free people in free nations.

Don't be afraid. Come to us.
If you want those beliefs, have them!
Please. In the 'Free Zone' though, please.

Just not enslaved to the cruelty of this non-religion that is the 'Church of Scientology'.
We don't want to hurt you, or make you feel less.

We wish to elevate you.
This 'church' seeks to make you less than a human.
Degrade you, and use you, as an endless cash box.

You are more.
Do you not understand you are a beautiful thing? You are special, and we, all of us, us anonymous, random individuals, we are legion, and yet, we all love you.
Fun can be made, vicious insults you might think.

But, trust me, I am a Catholic priest.
I know we're not all horrid, not near most of us are.
But we're made a source of fun.
Sometimes it seems we're all, collectively, the butt of jokes.
But, I go out, with my collar, and from people I know aren't Catholics, I get respect, understanding, even love.

I'm saying, if you want to keep that as your faith, do it.
But your 'Church' has abused you.
Demanded far more of you than any real church or faith should. Catholics, as I am, Protestants, Puritans, my Christian friends, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists and others, my non-Christian but religious friends, Agnostics, and Athiests, one of which I know is my brother, and I love to death.

All close, and I love them.

I even have some Free Zone Scientologist friends.

They got me involved in this.
And it is made clear by a good share of them all, in each group, this
'Church' of Scientology abuses its followers.

Please know we just wish to help, religion aside.
Philosophy and politics aside.
We're your friends, and want to help.
You just need to let us do so.
