Churches and Serfs
Black=supporter of church
Red=non supporter of church

Hey Paul, I have been thinking. What do you think of that Catholic Church and its beliefs?
I don’t think much of it because all I know for sure is that everyone and everything finds a way to put us down.
You rally think that? I find the church to have been spiritually lifting and giving to likes of us.
Then why is it we are still shoveling mud, and we dong get paid for it, but the lords make it seem like we have been given a gift.
Don’t look at it like that, the church is beautiful and gives us a cause to follow.We might seem like less to others but we have a path of good to follow.
That is hogwash, can you tell me how the church has been good for us serfs out here?
Well of course I can, and also before I really get going on this topic here, I cant quite see why you are so negative towards them when practically every other serf out here humbly offers a hand when it comes to labor needs for the church. Everyone loves to offer a helping hand when the church is needing repairs for it’s foundation or any other need.
Maybe I am simply different because I cannot see past this fog of rage before my eyes. The way the lords and politicians give us basic rights and expect us to pay them for this mediocre lifestyle, while others simply due to where they were born receive everything life is suppose to offer. I feel as though we are segregated from the regular society
Is it the way that we serf’s place our homes near one another. You know why we do this. We find power and safety in numbers.
Well yes and no, I mean why do we have to be bound to our lands with poor living conditions and we work so hard while others receive everything for half of the work that we do?
This is where the church will help you my friend; it provides peace of mind to overcome all of these obstacles and frustrations that come with the life that we have been given. I found the church was able to provide me with the tools to cope with that very same anger I see buried inside you.
So then what is it you and every other serf see in this church?
I felt what you are feeling today, when I invested myself in the church I was able to find new meaning. This life makes it seem like even when you pass you shall return to this same life but in another form. The church explains the path of doing good, and committing oneself to improving themselves, working hard. It allowed me to believe and hope that
