Priest Threatens Ex-Seminarian
This is a follow-up from the post before this that has got much attention especially from a certain group who have actually ignored what i have been trying to tell them before this. I didn't expect the attention but since i have it now, i should make use of it! hehehe. The Malay saying goes so well here; "Siapa makan cili, dia akan rasa pedas".
A close friend of mine received a call from a priest who actually have my number; but the priest chose to call my friend instead, and asked him to advice me not to write such things (i.e my opinion and experiences) on my blog. He said that many other priests are upset and they won't give me a chance when i apply again!!!
Hmmmm a threat? This is precisely what i was writing about. So am i suppose to sit down quietly and not say anything even when there are unjust and 'nonsense' happening? Am i suppose to 'suck up' or 'kowtow' so only then i will be accepted and be ordained?
Chance? what chance?
So it's not a 'calling' now, but chances??? Hmmmm.
Good that now I've got their attention. I was ignored, even after making appointments to meet the 'Big-Shot'. He didn't want to meet me to hear me or even give any explanations. Guess he has no answer, or maybe the guilt prevented him.
By the way, who said I was intending to apply again? After what my family and I have gone through, after witnessing politics within the holy, after seeing decisions made by priest who have 'funny' relationship with his worker, after seeing how the so-called 'respected one' could come up with an evil plot, I'm gonna apply again?? 'Kepala otak engkau'!!
Guess, i don't have what it gets to be a priest in this modern world; I just can't carry balls or suck up to anyone. That's not me and throughout my 7years and 5mths in the seminary I have never done that. I've always been out spoken. But when I questioned the credibility of a system that clearly is biased, I am now the bad guy and should be thrown out!! Hmmmmm.
I am scandalized by their lives and actions! This is not what I thought the priesthood would be. In fact priests of old were never like this at all.
They say I should not blog about this, but they can use the pulpit or meetings to 'fire' or 'whack' people? Tell me about getting personal! Duhhhh!!!
Such hypocrisy!
As I have said many times, i still respect and appreciate the priesthood. Thank God for the many holy and God-fearing priests who tirelessly minister their flock. I salute you, I pray for you. You are the hope of this trying times. You show us the face of God. Here a prayer for you and the rest who need to imitate you.
O Jesus, eternal Priest,
keep your priests within the shelter of Your Sacred Heart,
where none may touch them.
Keep unstained their anointed hands,
which daily touch Your Sacred Body.
Keep unsullied their lips,
daily purpled with your Precious Blood.
Keep pure and unearthly their hearts,
sealed with the sublime mark of the priesthood.
Let Your holy love surround them and
shield them from the world's contagion.
Bless their labors with abundant fruit
and may the souls to whom they minister
be their joy and consolation here
and in heaven their beautiful and
everlasting crown.
Amen.
