The Unprogrammed Programmer

It’s easy to be overwhelmed by the lies that surround us. We may begin to care more about things that were programmed than we care about The Programmer.

As soon as we feel ourselves focusing on programmed things, it’s a good idea to immediately think about St. Thomas Aquinas. He looked at God as the Unmoved Mover. To Catholic Fundamentalists, Aquinas’s Unmoved Mover is the Unprogrammed Programmer.

When we let programmed things lead us away from Him, we become less. One “trick” to get our attention focused back on the Unprogrammed Programmer is to immediately define the distraction. Then, we should automatically ask ourselves why the Other Side produced the distraction.

The answer is always the same: “In this case, The Program was distorted to distract many souls, and mine particularly, from thinking about The Programmer.”

Asking “Who benefits?” is English for “Qui bono”, showing that the question has been used to get closer to truth since Roman times.

Ask “Who benefits?” after being exposed to every news release. The question is the mental equivalent of using a vaccination to protect your body from disease.
