An engineer is by nature a curious person--someone who likes to figure things out and who can take a complex idea and make it simple and workable. Engineer, Troy Guy, has done just that in his precise analysis of the Catholic Church. As if with his exacting micrometer in hand, Troy has measured all contenders for the "pillar and foundation of the truth" and has discovered that God the Eternal Engineer has designed but one structure that will stand the test of time until her Master Builder returns. They say that "simplicity is a mark of genius" and "the less parts the better" so with that in mind I'd like to say THANK YOU, Troy, for giving us such a genius tour de force of your faith journey and making the complex simple!
