i have no intention in protecting the man, i have an instrument i have to guard:
Y H H
W
and that's it! but what of the initiation? in making the symbol, as the rites of catholics and the orthodox have shown
forehead
left shoulder right shoulder
centre of rib-cage
yes, the rib-cage salutation represent the heart...
the difference being:
1 4 3
2
which is catholic (protestants do not perform this gesticulation) - the orthodox arithmetic?
1 3 4
2
or how catholics don a wedding ring on the right hand, on the ring finger - while protestants don their wedding ring on the left hand, on the ring finger...
the gesticulation hits a third alternative that abandons protestant sensibility, due to the hay-chys being placed outstreched: to spell out the tetragrammaton in the according sequence:
1 2 4
3
alternatively: the interchange of 2 with 4 and 4 with 2... depending on your copernican argument of how to pin-point n.e.w.s. (north east west south) on a "flat earth" argument when that's... really necessary when reading a map, and needing to go from point a (genesis) to point b (exodus);
i'm really surprised the orthodox volk do not write from right to left, like semites... if they were truly orthodox they'd imitate the semitic impression of writing from right to left, rather than write as the europeans do: from left to right.
