1. All creation could have been programmed in a week.
2. His ability to provide miracles becomes understandable.
3. The Flood becomes an historical fact.
4. The Red Sea could have been parted.
5. He could make sons of Abraham from stones along the road.
6. The faith of our fathers makes perfect sense.
7. Jesus could have been born of a virgin and risen from the dead.
8. Evolution can be seen to be as much a myth as global warming.
9. His “Transubstantiation Program” could transform wafer and wine into His Body and Blood.
Catholics should be very grateful to Fundamentalists, particularly many of those in the Baptist persuasions, for keeping the fundamentalist interpretation of Scripture alive. Likewise, many Jews have refused to be drowned in the waves of modernism that have washed over humanity, and have maintained a deep respect for the inerrancy of God’s Word.
Getting closer to God means seeing that He had, and has, the power to program all creation. Getting closer to Him, we see that He has the power, as seen in the nine points above, to provide anomalies in His Program for the benefit of those He loves. The survival of each one of us is, in fact, a miracle. We can all remember things that have happened to us that can only be described as “miraculous”, bits of love we have received from those who’ve helped us.
The Catholic Church, guided by the Holy Spirit (the Holy Wireless Connector, to Catholic Fundamentalists), did have the courage to replace some of its Latin with languages that could better express the reality of electron flow. The Age of Electricity, after all, requires wholly different words than those used when the Iron Age replaced earlier periods of technology.
Now, we have but to integrate the idea of God as “Unprogrammed Programmer” more fully into our individual intellects to begin the journey into the fullness of Catholic Fundamentalism.
