The fact that I was living as a normal human being, I was meeting a new set of people. They were speaking about many things without any kind of censorship. I was interested in the religious sphere.
Contrary to what I was taught at the theological faculty, many people who do not go to church have a good level of religious feelings, thoughts, prayers etc....They were looking for something that they did not find in the institutional church. Many of them were very free in their thoughts....Deep deep down they all wished to come back to church. Obviously there were problems to come back. They expected some changes in the church, which obviously they occur very slowly or maybe too late.........
I noticed that speaking with these people I was more at ease. I couldn't teach them the old way. They weren't afraid of hell ! But they couldn't take in any kind of brain washing in order to convince them of any religious thoughts.....
There were many places where to meet such places....but the traditional priests were busy in the temple with the selected few.....what a waste of time and energy I thought.........
Well I have a lot of work to do. I have to present a new way of communicating with God. I have to teach them a new way of praying, a new way of discussing religious issues, a new way of communicating and celebrating with God, a new way of fighting injustices....the list is infinite !!
