I apologize, but I can not agree with everything that was said against the opus in this forum ...


Portuguese-speaking I do not know write well in Spanish language. Forgive me.


I'm ex-cash. I went into work at age 15 and went to thirty ... 15 years have been "inside".


I left two years ago and I highly respect tenenda the opus. I have found that non are true many of the things that have been said here in the forum.





1) I have never coerced to stay on site;


Always with respect to mine deep freedom, let me elegera what I wanted. But obviously they tried to see if mine and wants to leave provisions were real and convicts. Rather than coerce, have the same determination that if a father put his son wanted to leave home.





2) In front of many infidelities and traicciones of mine, they could b just and expel a reaction. But, to charity, try Emend, I repeat, with great charity. In this story, the "son of a whore" has been myself. I have done many things that did not suit either a nunerario, either a Cristao, is an honest man.





3) When I left work, non have left me.


I'm still a friend of at least two directors of the work em my country.


I remember that makes us years ago when I was still a cash, in a chat with the Vicar of the opus of my country, the chaplain, it told me to continue the treatment with a friend of mine who had left the opus. He said something like, "dever tendes the charity to help this guy, because he suffers a lot" ...





4) When I left work, I've gotten sad few days later. And other former Fellows I know also have a long life with a farm of sadness. And that's verdade, do not tell me no.





5) The opus does not intend to profit, just take the money. I am convicted that the opus is a supernatural nature. See: if they want only your own money, because they themselves apply corporal mortification? I think one is mortified deve bodily eagerness to have a supernatural. Nobody bodily mortifications without supernatural reasons.





6) In the same vein, why would a member of the opus with the money he has received from other members? Nothing, absolutely nothing. I was able to verify if all members - including managers - live in poverty and they tell of his expenses.





7) Proselytizing? Yes, of course, like all Christians.





political reasons? No. I have not seen in the 15 years I have been cash. Even in election year politics, my memory, let alone ask for specific candidates in the house so as not remove the freedom of individuals.





And other things ...


I think maybe some have resentimentos against the opus, but wanted to make mine experience. I can not agree with attacks "passion" without foundation, that are made against the opus. Only this. There.


Desejo good luck to all.
Marcelo
