FROM TEILHARD DE CHARDIN

.
He that will believe only what he can

fully comprehend must have a long head

or a very short creed.

.

We are not human beings having a

spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings

having a human experience.

.

Love is a sacred reserve of energy;

it is like the blood of spiritual evolution.

.

Growing old is like being increasingly

penalized for a crime you haven't committed. 
.
By means of all created things, without exception,
the divine assails us, penetrates us and moulds us.
We imagined it as distant and inaccessible,
whereas in fact we live steeped in its burning layers.
In eo vivimus.  As Jacob said, awakening from his dream,
the world, this palpable world, to which we brought
the boredom and callousness reserved for profane places,
 is in truth a holy place, and we did not know it.
Venite, adoremus.

Chardin (1881-1955) was a paleontologist, geologist,

philosopher, Catholic priest, and, unfortunately,

a Jesuit. He was too advanced, intellectually

and spiritually, for the small-minded morons

in Rome. Many of his writings were denied

publication. He was treated basically as

a heretic, a traitor to tradition, dogma,

and infallibility.

It was incredibly high-handed, born of ignorance

and a type of ecclesiastical stupidity that seems

to run deep at the Vatican, as well as among

the Jesuits, who, with all of their intellectual

arrogance and pride, were blind to the

fact that in their midst was a true genius.

This man was talking and writing about

God and the universe in a way that some

readers of THE URANTIA BOOK might

find familar in many respects.

But the Pope and the "Doctrine" slaves

at the Vatican, with the cooperation of the

good Jesuit Fathers, these Sons of St. Ignatius

of Loyola, a mystic and seeker not

unlike Chardin in many respects,

stepped on him.

He was silenced.
Friends had his books published after his death.

The Jesuits: the Pope's "little soldiers,"

the "black-robed CIA" as they're often called,

the dogma defenders,

the losers, remnants of the past.

The day will come when, after harnessing space,
the winds, the tides, gravitation, we shall harness
for God the energies of love. And, on that day,
for the second time in the history of the world,
humankind will have discovered fire.
