RAËL LAUNCHES A HUGE APOSTASY CAMPAIGN FOR CATHOLICS


The Catholic Church, which is currently responsible for so many sexual and financial scandals, claims to count hundreds of millions of followers. However, most of them disagree with the official stances of this church on such topics as divorce, contraception, abortion and homosexuality, to name just a few. In fact, the majority of the so-called Catholics do not at all follow the Pope's exhortations on such matters.

Nevertheless, if you happen to have been baptized as a child, without even having been asked, you are officially listed as a Catholic and therefore expected to support the Catholic Church. This organization relies on this number of followers to justify its positions and sometimes cover the criminal activity of its pedophile priests. The only way to show your opposition is to officially apostatize in writing. This means to renounce the Catholic Church so that it can no longer count you among its followers.

The members of the International Raelian Movement are soon going to be in the streets in every country to launch a campaign to encourage Apostasy, by distributing simple forms to be sent to the bishops of the areas where the baptisms had taken place.

This campaign has nothing to do with renouncing Jesus or his message, but it's only about renouncing an organization that has betrayed Jesus' messages of love and justice, and still betrays them to this day. In fact, most Catholics have not set foot in a church for a long time anyway … and may not even feel Catholic at all! But as long as you have not officially apostatize in writing; the Catholic Church still counts you among its followers in order to increase its power!

Whether you are divorced (50% of marriages end this way), use contraception (80% of people use it), underwent abortion, are homosexual, or have been a victim of a pedophile priest, show you opposition to the Catholic Church WHICH DOES NOT RECOGNIZE YOUR RIGHTS, by officially apostatizing. To apostatize is to fight for your rights and your freedom to be different.

Raelianism advocates sexual freedom between consenting adults but considers pedophilia, rape and other sexual abuses as criminal and pathological acts that must be immediately denounced to legal authorities, even when committed by priests and bishops.

The Raelian Movement counts 55,000 members in 84 countries. Please visit www.rael.org
