I do not talk about Plato's Word
Or Euclid's Elements; both of these concepts
Are sufficient evidence for God's existence
That there is order in both the ideated and corporeal world.
The first premised that there is in fact reason
And one has the ability to understand someone's words.
The second premised that there is in fact reality
And one has the ability to understand it through measurements.
Thus, the universe can be explained in both ways,
By measurement and by word,
And because of this, there must be a Creator.

This is not the God of philosophers,
But is merely the way we can infer that a god of some sort exists;
That there is order both through what is possible and also what can be communicated.

But, the God of philosophy is Aristotle's "Unmoved Mover"
The "Prime Mover", or whatever else philosophy invents
A priori to describe god's existence.

And certainly, there's always an atheist like Hume who says
"It always was." And we have two sufficiently complete systems
Of believing in the universe.

Rather, it is why I don't use philosophy to describe God's existence.
The "Unmoved Mover" the "First Cause" the "Supreme Self"
The "Architect"---which this last one is closer to being a proof of God's existence.

I find people who come to faith through philosophy
Often have the weakest faith.
It just takes a little bit of science to knock over their foundation.
I, instead, believe because of science.
I believe because of communication.
I believe because of mathematical principles.
I principally believe because I've seen and witnessed good
And can find no other way to explain it.
For, very often what I've found to be good
Other men have soiled with their opinions
And trampled on like swine.
Universally, what I found was good
And it was bad men who soiled it
So, I'm happy there is a hell to put those people in.

My belief is simple.
I know God through having a relationship with Him.
I observe God when I see kindness or love or joy.
And to be honest, the cosmological argument makes me doubt
More than it strengthens my faith.
Just me personally, as I have an imagination
Which can conjure anything up,
And it's not hard for me to believe in a universe
Sufficiently created of its own natural forces.
The model science has created seems to be atheistic
And should I believe it---and I don't---I'd have to be an atheist.
Yet, I see so much good in the world that goes without explanation
And I cannot escape Earth's Atmosphere to see if it were truly
A sphere, and I cannot go back in time to watch Cave Men evolve
And I cannot---especially---know if there was some quantum form of nothing
Which started the Big Bang.

To be frank, the only thing I can know is that there is good in this world.
And it remains good even when I'm told it's not.
And on that, I rest my faith because it is far easier to see
Than an "Unmoved Mover" or "Prime Mover"
Or "Sufficient Self" or "Supreme Consciousness."
To me, God sits in the form of a white robed man
Tall, in the background of heaven like he were a mountain
And above him is a rainbow;
And He like a rainbow, just stays his place there in Heaven's background
And when you move toward him, he remains fixed;
Like a rainbow. And His Son and His Daughter our Holy City---I'm being foolish---
Are there beside us, talking to us as citizens of a city so magnificent
With its pearlescent green and red towers as tall as the space between the Earth and Moon
Its forests of the Trees of Life, its country sides, Mount Zion the Everest Sized Golden Peak with Silver Cap
Its mansions, its river the size of an ocean, its temple where the LORD sits,
The fish, and all the animals and things yet to be understood created.
Libraries, playgrounds, bakeries where the bread is free, coffee shops
Chocolate Factories, Carnivals, Street Fairs...
And all of this will be free of charge, fully supplied by God.
Architecture so lush, no modern structure can rival it.
Painting, sculpture, murals, flowers, possibly even a beautiful flora and fauna filled with colors unimaginable.
Everyone will be friends. Everyone will know everyone else.
Eternity will be spent meeting new folk, growing to know them, inviting them to your mansions,
Exploring the infinite planes of heaven--for the city is huge, but there's suburbs and country sides for sure---
The sheer fact I can imagine this wonderful place---
That the imagination is good---proves there is something inherent in what we call good.
And if good is self evident, it can only be that God made it so.
As there are men who cannot see what's self evident,
And in our day, those same men spoil life for everyone else by corrupting it.
And I would like to go where life is incorruptible.
For this life is spoiled and maligned with sin and selfishness.

Where those who have committed offenses will go
Is hell. Sandstone tan, lit by the shadows of flames.
A heat above ninety degrees.
Ugly COs with horse hooves, red chests
Worms all over their faces,
Hideous shadowy cloaks
Needle pores.
It's unlikely they will torment you
Unless you did something really bad,
But they will wound you with a spear or sword
And place you in solitary confinement.
There, you'll feel your lowest low
With the festering of your wound
Sore, and without healing.
Worms will feast upon it.
And if you're truly a miscreant,
You'll get a cellmate.
God help those who do.
For, Hell is a real prison somewhere.

The camel through the needle's
Eye---if thought a city's wall---
Is only gainful fable
If we see its burdens fall.

For if we interpret Christ's
Words only the city's wall,
We may lose great miracles
And not hear Christ when he calls.

My works are fables.
Do not be turned aside to them,
As St. Paul said.
There is nothing divinely revealed in my work.
It is all simply apologetics,
Arguments meant to teach a solvent pathway to God.

This leads to what I think those fables are.
Book of Enoch or Jubilee,
Koran, Book of Mormon, 
In Revelation, the Number of the Beast spells "Allah" in Arabic.
Mormonism is steeped in symbolism
Of the Golden Calf and the Ancient Mystery Cults.
The Books of Enoch and Jubilee
Are filled with teachings denying the New Covenant prophesied in Jeremiah. 
And the Gospels of Mary or The Secret Book of James
Are filled with the teachings of the Gnostics which deny the teachings of Christ. 

Everything I wrote were stories. Similitudes. 
Like Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress, Lewis' Narnia
Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, Chesterton's Father Brown
Tolstoy's War and Peace, Austen's Pride and Prejudice,
Dostoevsky's Brother's Karamazov, Helen's Iliad and Odyssey
Ovid's Metamorphosis, Herodotus' Histories,
Nietzsche's Thus Spake Zarathustra, or Freud's Psychology.

There is wisdom in what I wrote which are borne from the eternal truths.
But none of these are sacred, and some are outright evil.
My works, if they are read for anything beside their insights
Are as worthless as the worst on this list.
Yet, I am confident that there are some hundred and fifty extra biblical texts
Rejected by the Council of Nicaea. And I'm confident those
Combined with the heretical Monotheistic Religions of today
Will be the fables Christians turn toward
Teaching licentiousness, sin and selfishness. 

When I was young,
About eighteen,
I was talking with God and told Him
"I don't believe in You."
I heard His voice, saying, 
"All men have gone astray, and there is none which does good."

My Ex Girlfriend and I were atheists.
We were bound to hedonism
And neither of us were happy.
I was atheist for a few months.

Then, doubts crept in.
Almost immediately after becoming an atheist
Doubts about my atheism crept in.
What of Universal Good?
What of Universal Truth?
It was at that moment
I realized every atheist I'd ever spoken to
Hadn't believed in Universal Truth.
To them, truth was subjective,
And was only a matter of perspective.

It took serious blows to my faith.
Such a serious blow to my faith
That I began to write "The Fifth Angel's Trumpet"
And crafted Marc's Atheism with my own doubts
My own atheism.
Yet, at the end, Marc was to discover that the love
He shared with Erin was the proof of God's existence.

For, the greatest doubt in my mind
Was, "Why isn't this love universally true?
"Why do people scorn it, and malign it, and choose not to believe in it?
"This love is real. I know it. And this love can fix the world."
For that love, I have etched into my conscience as
The proof of God's existence.
It wrecked my faith in Accidents.
Nothing Accidental could be truly meaningful
Yet I had found meaning which transcended even myself.

What followed was I met my best friend Solomon.
And he introduced me to the hardest Atheism I'd ever seen.
Nietzsche. He introduced me to Robert Greene's ideas.
Then I had encountered the hardest atheism I'd ever seen.
But, my faith in atheism was already deconstructed.
Nietzsche's argument was disproven. 
For there is something genuinely good about love
And monogamy, and trust, and fidelity, and 
Most of all, I had discovered truth.

In my earliest burgeons of intellectual curiosity
I took a quarter, which was 1 inch in diameter.
I tried to discover what Pi was.
I had found Pi was a measurement
Of a circle's circumference if the diameter is one.
Meaning, truths were measured
And universal truths existed.
This peace I felt, this love
I measured in the real world
As a solve to all of our worldly problems.
And its source, I soon found, was Christ Himself.
It was not something we could generate on our own
And even saying Christ's name,
I feel the genuine peace.

For this peace, I found it hadn't come from human agency
But was rather something which Christ Himself had taught.
It was the very teachings of Christ---this peace I had found.
And with that, I realized immediately that this universal truth
Which I felt, and made me a better man,
Was the truth which I must teach the world---
And that truth's power source is Christ Jesus.

Dear,
Psych2Go

I have a High IQ and this might seem like a stupid question, but why does a lack of confidence in my own knowledge make others pounce upon me? If demeaning myself makes me vulnerable, then it means those around me are predatory, and I am their prey. Doubly, by your own admission I am not intelligent for saying two of those things. Regardless, maybe I am not intelligent, and I'm some idiosavant. I'm only smart enough to make that portmanteau, and my intelligence is lacking. I'm also entitled, of course.  

Socrates, considered the wisest man in Athens, asked a lot of questions, making himself look the fool. He was also martyred, which, by your standards he would have been less intelligent when he drank the hemlock poison, therefore, according to your psychobabble, he wasn't martyred because he wasn't confident enough to abstain from the hemlock.

I also looked into the PPI-R. I'm having a psychologist friend of mine look into the accuracy of that test, and whether Trump's is 177. That would mean Hitler's is 169. And---if I'm being mean it's for a reason---on a Swiss Government website I saw the average college student's score was 291 for a male, and 266 for a female.

This gets to my point. Why does demeaning myself make me a prey? There's something to victimhood culture, because I'm with Black Lives Matter that I don't want to have to hunt my prey with a stick, and play this awkward, white people game where I have to know all the social cues and self affirmations to fit in.

I have to be mean to you because what you promote is something most destructive to the Western Tradition. It is your freedom to write it. And perhaps I am being mean in this post--- But I have it on a hunch that a shrink thought I had Histrionic Personality Disorder because I wrote her a letter in this tone. Frankly, if I do have HPD, it's because I've been taught to self-love more than anyone else. I love myself dearly, and I want the exact opposite which is to escape myself, and invest my time in someone else.

I've been through six years of intensive therapy. I went twice a week to group therapy, went once a week to individual therapy, seen a psychiatrist---about the only helpful person out of the lot of them. I was hypnotized to a point of trauma, I was inundated with this "Self Love" culture--- And they told me to throw my mother under the bus because she made me feel sad. A lot of people made me feel sad at that time in my life. 

What I'm saying gets to the root of your comment, "Smart people don't demean themselves, because it makes others feel less confident in them." What world do you live in? The one I used to know---a long time ago---never punished me for doubting myself. I never had to be a predator to make a living. I didn't have to put up a facade in order to fit in. Then came Elementary school, where I was abused nonstop by peers and teachers. To your credit, I was put in special education programs built for retarded children. But, as I said---and you called it entitled---I have an IQ of 157. About the same IQ as Ralph Waldo Emerson. One of my favorite writers, actually. And it was this psycho mumbojumbo I lived with my whole life, and crippled me into becoming a writer. I had nothing better than to escape the abuse of my peers, and invent imaginative worlds where I could retreat into, and about the only people I did get along with were my brother and his friends. Was it that I didn't display self confidence? Was it that I broke a social taboo? Was it that I was really retarded, and needed a B-Tech and TSS? The shame of that time of my life, and you have the audacity to tell people that their problem is that they aren't confident in themselves. Most of the self confident people I know are borderline sociopaths, which accounts for almost 100% of the College Population according to that test you recommended the PPI-R.

When all's said in done, Therapy made me into the monster I became. Jesus took me out of it. If you want to know Psychology, read Freud, and know Self Love is the exact pathogen this culture suffers from. Self-Confidence and Self Esteem are the very cancers eating away at our bones. What Freud said is that we need a Catharsis or love object. As the greatest secret to psychology is that we are all narcissists, and our deepest desire is to find solidarity with someone else. And I half agree with all of these Liberals when they want to create their utopia of feel good and inclusivity. Yet, I can't be inclusive. I can't condone self deprecation, and especially, I can't condone sacrificing humility for the sake of being liked. What's humble is pulling the child back from the street when a car speeds by. Not smiling while he gets ran over by it. And all of modern psychology is sin; it's claiming the train doesn't exist, while your car stands on the warning track. And if that test is any proof, the studies I saw show that almost 100% of our generation are, indeed, psychopaths. And we have a whole lot of psychology to blame for that.

The greatest psychological truth is to fix our own damn problems, and make ourselves better for everyone else.

Grace, my love, is a pardoned
Offense, so when one's walking
Through lush greens of a garden,
One not offends, by mulching.

For though the dirt is privy
Upon the foot of a man,
He used right his story
To make rich the neighborlands.

Sin's strong curse is that it is fate
Which will cause we men to woo guilt;
It compels callow couth to stray.

So Jesus we need to be saved,---
When crass shame comes, compulsory,
To turning souls,---to tame the grave.

Something we ought to have figured out in elementary school---
When everyone's having the argument ,"Boys rule and girls drool"
Or, "Boys are from Venus and have a penis, and girls are from Jupiter to get more stupider."
We should have figured out that girls have a vagina and boys have a penis.
But, collectively our culture has to argue about this.
There are actual academic articles trying to define gender---
Some toe skin and a little bit of clitoris tissue isn't going to make someone a male.
Drilling a hole in someone's pelvis and putting plastic velvet in it isn't going to make someone a girl.
Neither are silicon water bags implanted in the chest.

It should be easy to understand what the difference is between a woman and a man.
In fact, what we called "Birthing People" originally was "Woman".
We're all back in elementary school, but our mother's can't point out
The little sister's coolie or the little brother's pee pee, 
And tell them that she's a girl or he's a boy..
So, I can understand the confusion being had right now.
Culture needs a spanking.

Dear,
Mr. Kapinos

You created the show "Lucifer". In it you have a protagonist who isn't atheist because she believes in "Good and Evil and Right and Wrong." I applaud you for making this character, as Lauren German's  character is of the kind of Atheist as Marcus Krantz---my lead character in my first novel, "The Fifth Angel's Trumpet". If I may put my input, Lucifer is not proving himself the Devil to her in order to ensconce her in her Atheism. As, what better proof of God's existence, than the Devil Himself? Very wise thematic choice, as Satan cannot evangelize the Gospel, but rather can only cause suffering and hell.

With that being said, Lucifer is an interesting character. Portrayed as a man with Histrionic Personality Disorder, who is a sexual predator yet is seeking justice. What a wonderful world it would be if Lucifer sought justice. Every time I watch your show, I say, "If only the Devil were like so."

When I was in the hospital, there was a demoniac within the walls. He'd cry out, "I'm going to destroy you," In a deep voice, like one might see in a Death Metal song. He didn't sing it, but had that tone of voice. And he said, "I'm going to destroy you," while I was weeping in the other room.

Then, I heard the same voice within my head---one of the few auditory hallucinations I'd ever had, though I understood it as a demonic apparition. This particular devil I call a "Babylonian", as there are a multitude of fallen angels, and at the top echelon there are three with twenty-two distinct personalities. Lucifer, the "Covering Cherub", was one of the Cherubim, the four creatures who stand at God's throne. There must have been six of them at first, yet distinctly, two of them were different than the other four, thus, pride must have settled into their hearts. Lucifer sinned according to his "Brightness".

Yet, there remains ten distinct demonic personalities within the being called "Lucifer". As there are ten horns to the Dragon. And seven heads. Meaning, there is an enclave of Ten Kings and seven heads of state who will be possessed by this once Cherubim. Lucifer is Beautiful, and can take the form of a man. Which gets us to Job, when he roared like a lion, and on the command of God, he did everything in his power to strip from Job his salvation. And Lucifer caused Job to act defiant toward God, to question God's reasons for punishing him, yet Job sinned nothing in the trial because Job didn't curse God, therefore, Job was left with double of what he lost.

To understand Satan, one must merely look at this story in Job. Satan cares nothing for justice, and only on expanding his empire. The Satan you created is a metaphor for a Sex Addict, yet Satan is more like Adolph Hitler combined with Errol Flynn. The Babylonian I talked about earlier, the one who spoke within my mind and manifested in the one patient of the hospital I was staying at---understand I am innocent, but its desire is to kill me. Just like Christ was innocent, and Satan's ultimate plan was to obstruct justice by not allowing Christ to die on the cross. Now, I am not Christ---I am not a God---so therefore, I am not completely innocent, yet what crimes I have committed have been atoned for, yet Satan wishes to continue his assault upon me. For like Pharaoh or Babylon, they did not want to withdraw their torments on the Israelites. So, God sent Moses and Cyrus to free them.

Therefore, your show is interesting. Yet, it is not the true devil you have created. You created a picture of a Psychopath. Yet, you hadn't created the picture of the Devil. The devil will place Christians in concentration camps, will purge the world of all religions save the one where he is the head, and will most likely advocate the very morality of the Bible yet replace himself with Christ as the head. In fact, Satan will call himself Christ. For Lucifer is perfect from his begetting, until there is sin found in him. And his Prince, the Beast, will act like he is Jesus Christ.

I say all of this to show my love for your artistic rendition. As it submitted the DC universe under the Yoke of the Christian God. And I am happy that it did. Though there are falsehoods in the DC universe's moral telling, the fact remains that it opens the minds of Atheists to the possibility of God being greater and powerful enough to create a vast universe, where the forces of light and dark stand somewhere outside of it, beyond the constraints of time and space. And God, being all powerful, will still have dominion upon all of Earth and the worlds.
