9. Prosletyzing Catholics: Leaving Without Goodbyes
INFERNAL INTERNET
My Dear Rehtulnitram,
Tell your foot-soldiers not to let up. We are making definite progress. The sincerity of those who think they are embracing Khrist while ridiculing his Church gives me more than a few chuckles. If we could alienate them from the name that saves, we would be home free; as it is, there is still much work to be done. If they only knew, haha. The Protestant faith offers much in favor of the enemy to its own; but, when a Catholic converts to their cause, it is slow starvation.
Remember to enthrall fallen away Catholics with reformational zeal and rhetoric. It is ever so delightful to see them parrot the arguments of anti-Catholics. Allow them to research their points, but only from sources unsympathetic to the Catholic Church. Steer them toward evangelical sources big in apologetics but weak in accuracy and in any legitimate critical research. My mouth waters when I recall a young girl I helped to wean away with lies and half-truths borrowed from Chick Publications and the Radio Bible Class. Let them look at the so-called facts, but not honestly. Remember, the truth is still on the side of the enemy.
It is not always necessary that people join the more dangerous cults in the news. Many mainstream groups share the same errors and dissent from Catholic faith. Energize your evangelists and have them shout, cry, and swing their bibles through the air. That is always impressive and makes for a good show. They can even cry out that painful name Jeezus as long as they are not in full possession of the truth. Do not allow anyone to suspect that such might be expressions of counterfeit churches with imitation Khrists. Encourage a religious relativism that would excuse their defection from the Catholic faith-- as if the real Jeezus would ever have them abandon his Church for one manufactured by men, no matter how well intentioned. Disagreements and bitterness against priests is always most effective. It is also a good jab against the morale of clergy to hear their ministry labeled a fraud and their preaching as that of false prophets. It has also been my experience that the safest defection is for one to leave the Church without saying a word to their pastors. Influence new-found friends in this regard, urging the defector to avoid any dialogue with a priest. The priest might steal back his catch. Of course, many priests these days are pretty inept; but don't take any chances, you might happen upon a smart one. In any case, it suits our purposes that the minister who gave them the sacraments and preached the Gospel, all out of love, is dismissed as irrelevant. It hurts priests to learn second-hand about these defections. There are few things I like better than causing the enemy's shepherds pain.
