What do we do in behalf of sinful women?

Believe me, my beloved, that whenever I read this moving story of saint Pelagia and of saint Taisia, who are honored on the same day, I am moved, cry, and direct pitiful words against myself, because neither I nor any other of today’s bishops and clerics dares to lead a holy crusade for the salvation of tens of thousands of sinful women, who rot in the caverns of debauchery and of corruption.

O lord, raise up in our epoch, an epoch of Sodom and Gomorra, such holy men, who, devoid of the pharisaical spirit, will show divine interest for the salvation of multi-multitudinous prostitutes…

We must not forget, my beloved, that, in the filth of debauchery, in which thousands of women live, being led astray there for various reasons, there are also hidden diamonds, which must be drawn out. O readers! In the other world we will see surprises. We will see sinners in paradise on account of their sincere repentance, and “saints”, “most holy ones”, “most reverend ones”, “most blessed ones”, and “all-holy blessed ones” – until when these titles? – in hell on account of their hypocritical and pharisaical life.
