Publisher's Summary

Salvador Freixedo was born in Galicia, Spain, in 1923. Raised in a devoutly Catholic family, he entered the Jesuit order as a teenager and spent the next 30 years as a priest.  

While living in Cuba, he wrote 40 Cases of Social Injustice, for which he was "invited to leave" by the dictator Batista. He moved to Puerto Rico, where in 1969 he wrote Mi Iglesia Duerme (My Church Is Asleep) in a sincere attempt to force ecclesiastical recognition of the many shortcomings he saw in Catholicism. The bishops of Puerto Rico suspended his ministry, and he was later, under Church pressure, imprisoned in Venezuela.  

All these events caused Freixedo to review the ideas he had held as a Jesuit priest. He began to make an exhaustive, comparative study of all religions and found common patterns among them. He discovered that all religions had saints and miracles - aspects that the Catholic church had long considered its own monopoly.  

Freixedo then understood "miracles" were actually a commonplace phenomenon, that reality has always been "plastic" and malleable, and that interaction of humans with other, nonhuman intelligences could be traced back to the beginnings of recorded history.  

This audiobook features an enlightening introduction by noted UFO author and Fortean pioneer John A. Keel (author of The Mothman Prophecies and Our Haunted Planet), who first brought international attention to Freixedo's personal story and research.
