      he still had an issue with digital clocks

they reminded him of Wittgensteins Tractatus

a treatise that he

rather hopelessly

thought he might be able to follow

every time he tried to follow it

Reason wasnt his forte or suit

any more than the high school proofs for Geometry

while he apparently liked the concept of proof

he couldnt logically prove anything

therefore(wasnt he sounding logical)  he should have been sucker for Faith

he tried

tried for his religious parents

but he found Faith fallacious

Faith didnt even try to prove anything  not like he did  and for that untroubled vacuousness and its seemingly deliberate entitlement he wasnt going to give it the time of day

Hell
        he knew just enough that Wittgensteins First Proposition  the first chapter  was all he needed to know by this philosophical giant

1.  The world is all that is the case.

1.1(or his 2.) The world is the totality of facts, not of things.

1.11(his 3.) The world is determined by the facts, and by their being all the facts.

1.12(4.) For the totality of facts determine what is the case, and also whatever is not the case.

1.13(5.) The facts in logical space are the world.

1.2(6.) The world divides into facts.

1.21(7.) Each item can be the case or not the case while everything else remains the same.

he read the proposition to the head priest from a pencil-smudged piece of paper he folded and carried in his back pocket

this  after he was brought before him between two irate sises each with an ear of his in their hands

when finished he sat down on the chair before the Fathers imposing hardwood desk

they sat quietly across from each other

they sat for a long time

he had nothing more to say

the priest cleared his throat

                                             And

What do you say father

he smiled

Wovon man nicht sprechen kann, darüber muss man schweigen 

That is German  Whereof one cannot speak thereof one must be silent

Also Wittgenstein  the last proposition of Tractatus

Were you able to traverse to its end
                                                             I shook my head

Then I would think you would agree

Youre excused young man

thats what he took away from his Catholicism

an unorthodox Confirmation
