I learned something–both what “analogy of being” is and that it has been attacked, and now hopefully is being restored to Protestants. Many is the time I have adverted to the analogy in prayer, and it seems to me that contemplating beauty in creation leads naturally to appreciating the one source of Truth, Beauty, and Goodness. (Also leads to wonder at how atheists can say there’s “not evidence” for God. Are they blind?)

Now I know what to call this prayer.

“I was glad to have hit the first home run in this park. God only knows who will hit the last,” said Babe Ruth of the old Yankee stadium.

I’m reminded of the old quiz, “While the Yankees are rightfully proud of their history, which four former Cardinals had plaques dedicated to them at the old Yankee Stadium?”

Answer:

Roger Maris.
Miller Huggins.
Pope Paul VI.
Pope John Paul II.
