STORYLINE:
With social media and modern digital information bombarding people with a more tempting life, Arnoldus Yansen has taken off his priestly robe and is leaving his Indonesian monastery for a fresh start.

The 26-year-old was part of the administration staff at the Ledalero Institute of Philosophy and Creative Technology and followed his older brother and cousin into the priesthood.

Doubts about his choice of profession emerged while working as a deacon in a parish after passing a four-year degree in philosophy and theology.
