Islam?

An even bigger question--is Islam part of the Matrix?

    "What is truth?", asked Pilate. (Jn 18:38) Not in the same conversation, Jesus said, "I am the Way and the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me." (Jn 14:6). We need to agree that the distance from the truth is important. But the distance is not geographic, it is spiritual. Pilate didn't have the ticket, or like the apostles, he would have "seen" who Jesus was. Our blessing is the location that we have been given to the gospel of Christ. We were born and reared, in my case, embedded in it, as expressed in the Mass. I believe that the issue is election. I'm certain that other parishioners at All Saints in Des Moines, did not "see" what I saw, though they had the identical geographic propinquity to the gospel.

    I believe Islam could be another flock, as in "I have other flocks". I believe that meeting Christ COULD be unavoidable for all, and that "interview" could also include Muslims and Buddhists and Animists and Pagans. With no great certainty can I say that Islam is NOT part of the shadows of the Matrix. My spiritual sense is that there are some Muslims who are ardently following the person they believe to be God. I just don't know what to do with that.

    In our world today, it is apparent that Islam seems to harbor a lot of evil. We are to know the truth presence of the Spirit by its fruits. Looking closely at Islam seems to be a fruitless exercise, so I do not pursue it. For some reason, known only to Him, he has blessed me with propinquity and eyes to see. Praise Him.
