This is a path that the Anomic Ranger has dreaded, and yet has been necessary from the beginning. Never a road has been so foreboding and wrought with pitfalls and traps. This is the rock foundation institution that Christ Himself set in place that would defy the very gates of hell, it is also the home of the Spanish Inquisition. No effort was made to look down all the dim trails of history, rather Ranger tries to keep it in the here and now. Human and diabolical forces have infiltrated this institution, and yet, in the end, it will be the bride of the risen Lord. Sit by the fire as your humble reality scout tries to drill down to the truth of all these anomalies. So many sojourners are scarred by battle with both the world and this institution that proclaims to be "the Church". "The Church" is covered in the innocent blood of saints if one looks at history. This is not a dive into the depths of history, except to look at how it started; and maybe that is a clue as to what is what was supposed to be. History gives us a clue as to what happened, and maybe gives us a glimmer of the way forward. The fire of the Anomie patrol flickers in the night of the soul, and its warmth gives comfort. Join us in the journey.
