The Will Of God

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Actually, since powerful thinking machines apparently lie just beneath the surface of the whole Yesod/Hieros/Hierogrammates complex---in a way I do not comprehend---the paperwork would all be digital. The storage capacity would be unthinkable, of course. 

But are the machines the scribes/slaves, or are those the people who maintain the servers? I admit that I am completely baffled by the natures of both the Hierogrammates and the Hierodules. Too many masks.

Hierogrammate means "holy scribe" , so there must be *some* paperwork 
and bureaucracy involved.
