Light comes into our minds in two ways, directly from a light, or reflected from some Programmed Entity. When the tiny bits of light go into our minds, they are imprinted there. If needed, tiny bits of light are recalled to memory, where another part of our mind can consider it.

When St. Paul said “we see, as through a glass darkly” he was thinking of the internal resistors that keep us from seeing the source of what we see and have seen. Those resistors also keep us from seeing what we have seen; it is very difficult to put together all that we have seen of God so that He is ever more real to us.

All that can be seen are reflections of God’s Program and the Programmed Entities thereof. Sin in our mind keeps us from seeing the light well. The more we sin, the less we see, even though the same amount of light enters into our pupils.

Catholic Fundamentalists believe that a baptized baby, whose Original Sin has been washed away and who has not yet been re-corrupted by the world, may see God directly.

The greatest happiness comes from seeing The Programmer behind His Programmed Entities. Many are satisfied with reflections. “I am as close to God on the golf course as I am in church. Maybe, closer.” One of our jobs is to see that no soul we know approaches Judgment while polluted with such silliness. Pretending to be close to God while making excuses to avoid His Church makes us farther, not closer, and is, therefore, a lie much celebrated by the Other Side.

As Catholics, we not only see God, but make Him a part of ourselves at the Eucharist. That Holy Food courses through our veins to great spiritual effect. In our minds, it helps to neutralize, even drive away, those spirits from the Other Side who exist to separate us from Him.

As that Holy Food lets us purify our minds, we better see the source of light, which produced both the Programmed Entities, and a pathway through what has been programmed to The Programmer down which we may travel.

Programmed Entities exist to give us each all the information we can handle to decide if we’re happy with the dim reflections of God, or, God, Himself.
