The book is the one Glen has mentioned. I wrote it in the beginning of the 
Pandemic two years ago. My employer put us on paid leave for at least 1 or 2 
months, supported by the state, and I used the time to take Coursera courses 
and to write something. Since I could not find a publisher I have published it 
myself at a self-publishing service. In the beginning I was a bit frightened 
someone would come and murder me, because it is about the secret of the church. 
The real secret. I think I have found it. But I could not find an explanation 
why no one has found it before, except David S. Wilson who was very close. One 
explanation would be that they people who tried have been killed. This may 
sound odd but people have been killed for religious cartoons. Luckily nobody 
really seems to care, except this list, which is a maybe a good thing, since I 
don't want to be murdered :-)-J.

    Jochen -
    I feel like an angel (or devil) dancing on the head of the FriAM
      pin!
    
    I wasn't able to get traction on the first post due to a blind
      spot I think I have about the details of the history of
      Christianity.  More and more of it gets *through* to me each time
      I read it, but because I have *broad* knowledge (with no depth
      anywhere) I was left with questions like "what about the
      Coptics?"  and an anecdote:  
    
    A few years ago, driving across Aamon Bundy country in W.
      Washington A 4door dually diesel blew past me (70mph) at 90mph
      "rolling coal" and sporting a bumper sticker that said "if it
      ain't King James, it ain't Bible!".   I have no idea what that was
      all about (any of it really, but the bumper sticker in
      particular).  My best guess was that it was a dismissal of
      Catholicism in particular?   Or maybe the LDS church or maybe
      Protestant sects that were not close to his?  Doesn't LDS defer to
      King James and just layer on their own Latter Day stuff over it?  
      
    
    I will dig deeper into the second post as I have developed a
      fondness for Oracles (primarily the I Ching) over the decades as a
      method for self-examination. 
    
    I don't think I know of your published book?   Got lost in my
      COVID spam?

      Today was a productive day: 2 new blog posts, the
        first about epigenetic changes in cultural evolution and the
        difference of Protestant and Catholic church..

        ..the second about the secret of oracles and their religious
        dimension
        https://blog.cas-group.net/2022/06/the-secret-of-oracles/
        
        Both are related to my book from 2020, which nobody except Dave
        has read. The printed version sold exactly once and that was a
        friend here in Berlin :-)
        
        Thanks Steve for the comment on this post too!
