And it did. It did change my life. So that's what changed is that I started to look at the Catholic tradition again from a new lens. So I had looked at like Teresa of Avila, this nun who lived in the 1500s. And she had an experience with one of these seraphs, or an angel, right? But she didn't call it an angel at first.

So I went back and I looked at these experiences that these people had that we now, when we look at them, we see the nice prayer cards, and it looks really like a sweet kind of encounter that they had. But really, the encounter, when you read the primary source material that you see in the archives, It looks really different than how it's represented.

And that was shocking to me because— Which archives? Okay, so there are two main archives that hold—there's lots of different archives. But the ones that hold lots of information about this, first is the Vatican Archive. And the Vatican—it used to be called the Vatican Secret Archive— but it's called the Apostolic Archive and it's the Pope's Archive. And you have to, you can't just go to that.

You have to actually have certain credentials to get into it. And so I have those credentials. So I was able to go there and I was able to look at the primary source material for Some of the saints in the Catholic and Christian tradition that had angel events or levitated and had anomalous activity.

And I was able to look at that and assess the primary source data on my own, which is really fascinating. So I did that work.

Oh, yeah, all of the saints. So once you start to look at the saints, you see that what is said about, what was said in the very, there are what are called primary source material. This would be some of the first material that comes out about that experience that that saint had. Teresa of Avila wrote her own experience. That's what makes it so important is that she wrote about it.

It was later what's called redacted. It was changed. by the church. She said she saw this angel and it wasn't a vision, it was in reality. And she said that it was short and it was shiny and she was confused because it didn't look like an angel. And she goes, well, it must be a cherub, right? So she had confusion about it. And it had a dart.

And she said, this dart it took and it basically put it in me, right? So this looks like modern day UFO abduction reports. And so once you start to see those connections, you cannot unsee them. And you're like, okay, got it. This is different than how it's represented in the prayer card, right? Where it's beautiful. And I hope that I'm not offending the Catholics that are looking at this.
