When I was twelve years old, I was interned in the seminary for priests in the Capital of Andalusia, Seville, during a difficult epoch at the end of the Spanish Civil War, in which more than two million Spaniards died, were dispossessed, or banished.  And when the want of provisions and food supplies was imposed with the arrival of the new dictatorship, the Catholic church took advantage of the opportunity to open hundreds of seminaries and convents allied to the plans of the Vatican and the red beret falangists of Franco’s military conquerors.  It began a forty year drama in which I was a witness of the religious, political, and social changes made in Spain by National Catholicism or the Political State of the Vatican and its world power.

The changes were exaggerated and prejudicial for Christianity, that they converted the Catholic church into an institution more political than religious.  Roman Catholicism became the greatest political force in Europe, and took over education, not only founding seminaries and universities and monasteries, but also controlling public teachings and the universities themselves.

Thousands of scholarships and monetary helps existed for all them that wanted to enter a seminary; and help was offered to both fathers and the poor to remedy the poverty that the Spanish Civil War brought to so many forsaken homes.  I was a victim who was brainwashed into joining the seminary at age twelve, and I suffered an inhumane and draconian discipline, which can canonically and according to the Council of Trent occupy the sacerdotal formation:  four years of humanities, three years of philosophies, four years of theology, and one year of dioconate.  I have to confess that there were years which elapsed in my life, without meaning, without ever having had the opportunity to reflect if I or my relatives, who were obliged to have a son who would elevate them socially and bring them out of their poverty, had the true vocation of priesthood.  I must acknowledge that I received an extensive education that I would never have received owing to the poverty of my relatives.  I had the valor to resist those twelve years, the most handsome of my life as a youth in puberty: a childhood changed by monastic rules, transcendental meditations, sacrifices and the human needs which I had to bear.  The brainwashed me with a scholastic philosophy which made me believe I was a divine or supernatural being with a divine powers of opening and closing the gates of heaven.  All a big lie!  A pseudochristianity called Catholicism, which is directed from the Vatican by an antichrist.
