Funny because it is true

Though legally a member of the clergy since 12/31/2003, my real ordination stems from a line of clandestine priests in the Martinist tradition.  That ordination and simultaneous commissioning as a Knight (which is why I use Rev. Kt. if I stoop to titles), Defender and Protector of the Holy Sepulcher, took place on my 21st birthday weekend (so eight years earlier) in Vancouver B.C.

For years I've gotten professional rates on church related publications and many many publishing houses mistake me for an ultra-conservative catholic.  The only real record in a church of my status is with the Order of Preachers, i.e. the Dominicans (of inquisitorial fame).  I am a member of their Confraternity of the Holy Rosary.  My certificate refers to Rev. Kevin Day.

Take that, Quasimodo.

Current religious and political stance

For a year now this is how my Facebook deals with religious affiliation and political views:

Religious affiliation:  Diplomatic Immunity. As both a career druid and as a person of the fourth book (the Sabians ran out of the hills with a copy of the Corpus Hermeticum which was subsequently judged to be acceptable to Allah), I enjoy diplomatic immunity among all faiths in order to promote peace and the common good.

Political views:  Synarchy.  "Rule Together"  We are truly all in the same boat.  It's called Planet Earth.  "This fragile earth our Island Home" - Episcopal Book of Common Prayer 1979

That's my story and I am sticking to it. 

Invoking Ch1 P2 of RSB

This is what I have literally and deliberately done within the last year after an additional year dealing with pastoral concerns in areas outside the church in my capacity as a Druid (I was elected to the Druidic College of Caer Lud on St. Valentine's Day in 2002).

In the counsel of our Holy Father Benedict:

"The second kind are the anchorites or hermits:  those who, no longer in the first fervor of their reformation, but after long probation in the monastery, having learned by the help of many brethren how to fight against the devil, go out well armed from the ranks of the community to the solitary combat of the desert. They are able now, with no help safe from God, to fight single-handed against the vices of the flesh and their own evil thoughts."

As a Martinist, I was trained in preparation for and on vigilant watch for "the tests of the four elements and single combat with the dragon."  This is a different way of saying the same thing. 

It is to this point that my walk with God has brought me.  In full confidence of The Lord, I continue my journey.

So... finally crossing from informal to formal; pro bono to professional. More to come, certainly.
