A PRAYER

Heavenly Father, by the Holy Spirit, through the Precious Blood of your Son, I pray.  Thank you for the gentle, knowing, even sweet treatment of the police and jailers who were forced by politicians to arrest me for daring to expose a group of young people to the actual empirical evidence of modern science.

How could we have ever guessed that the assault on knowledge would grow so severe that to merely state secular non-religious empirical evidence would become a crime?   Of course, it is not actually a crime, but having offered the evidence they made up false charges against me.  In that, I joined the rank of Saint Paul who on more than one occasion faced false charges, because they did not like the TRUTH he taught.

The world has grown so dark that it was not the LOGOS, that is, the Truth of the Gospel for which false charges were leveled against me, but merely the "actual empirical evidence of modern science."

Modern Cosmology has CRASHED AND ALONG WITH IT MODERN PHYSICS.  There is not one wit of evidence that sustains it. It has been proved total fancy and mythology and the "gatekeepers" of the secular culture are suddenly without foundation and like the Idol Makers of Ephesus their livelihood is threatened and they wish to kill anyone who exposes them.   Saint Paul was beaten and left for dead, and I am so ashamed, I was arrested by two very nice gentlemen, guys I would be proud to call my son and grandson. And although the 52-year-old groused and tried to say we were the same age (he wanted to flex his experience) I am old enough to be his father, in fact, my oldest child is OLDER than him.   They were confused by the lies, but in the end, were so gentle and genteel, the goodness of their spirit showed through. 

Saint Paul was a young man, a teacher, an apostle, and ultimately a martyr; I am just an old man, a teacher, an old retired prison chaplain. Saint Paul taught the Eternal Logos and I just hinted at the philosophical Logos, the Greek word variously meaning "ground", "word", "speech", "account", "reason", "proportion", and "discourse". It became a technical term in Western philosophy beginning with Heraclitus, who used the term for a principle of order and knowledge. I was targeted and arrested, accused of false crimes, not for preaching the Gospel, the Good News of the LOGOS, but merely for broaching the subject of the philosophical logos, that is the state of "actual empirical evidence of modern science."

Thank you, Lord, for the officers who arrested me and the jailers who were such fun and entertainment, bless them and give them all spiritual discernment. Have mercy on those who created and spoke the lies against me, that caused my arrest.  - Amen.
