A thesis submited to the Holy mother church

On the year 2 of the second age

 

 

  It is well known, to any faithful member of the church, that when an individual has been baptised, he or she has agreed to the covenant of Horen and God. By being 
a Canonist, one must embrace the Holy Scrolls of the Exalted and accept the teachings of the church that Exalted Owyn established. A true member of the faith,   
seeks to honor the God of the Holy Scrolls and obey the guardian of His laws, which  is none other than the Holy church. Devoted believers never worship other Gods    
than the true Canon God and accept the High Pontiff as their spiritual leader.

 

  An apostate is a member of the church that has renounced the true faith and fallen in foul and paganistic ways. People such as these take part in vile rituals and worship false 
gods. They spread their poison to others, condeming them to the void! They corrupt the canonist societies and dishonor God! This evil damages the soul and it prevents it from being saved,

but this said evil is a choice, we as beings with free will, choose to be close to warmth or close to cold and emptyness. I was unaware of the age of the dark nikirala, where the people
decided to NOT repent for their sins, it was a dangerous era for humanity and the Holy mother church. Chaos and destruction followed, law and order were threatened,

a terrible time indeed. Only through Canonism we can thrive and rebuild! What is the way to prevent such events from repeating in future history? Is it enough to

speak about faith and charity, to be as the only way to prevent apostasy, or do we need to do more? I urge the rest of the clergy to ponder on this matter.

 

  To conclude, apostasy is a great evil that condems the soul and its source is none other than the free willed being that posseses said soul. Unfortunately, apostasy is always

hard to track down, as many hide it. Every true canonist state should root out all apostates and if they do not repent for their sin, they must be punished by death, as they have

clearly violated humanity's covenant with God! Our current era is a troublesome one, for in my opinion the majority of the baptised apear to be faithless. The church of the Canon 
must find more ways to maintain the purity of the inducted! May God guide us and save us all.
