	Raymund Lull, First Missionary to the Moslems [Chapter 8]
		Lull was a philosopher, a poet, a novelist, a writer of proverbs, a keen logician, a deep theologian, and a fiery controversialist.
		Raymund Lull had become discontented with the methods of scientific inquiry commonly in use, and so set himself to construct his "Ars Major," or Greater Art, which by a series of mechanical contrivances and a system of mnemonics was adapted to answer any question on any topic.
		Lull's great art goes beyond logic and metaphysic: it provides a universal art of discovery, and contains the formulae to which every demonstration in every science can be reduced-being, in fact, a sort of cyclopedia of categories and syllogisms.

	Ramon Lull's Ars Magna
		This magnum opus described a number of eccentric logical techniques, but the one of which Lull was most proud (and which received the most attention) was based on concentric disks of card, wood, or metal mounted on a central axis.
		Lull had a more serious purpose in mind, which was to prove the truth of everything contained within the Bible.
		Well by some strange quirk of fate, Lull's work fired the imagination of several characters with whom we are already familiar, such as Gottfried von Leibniz who invented the mechanical calculator called the Step Reckoner.

		Lull was very much ahead of his time and the working out of his system was often performed with nothing more sophisticated than some pieces of paper cut out into circles and pinned in the centre.
		Lull's idea was that each disk should contain a number of different words or symbols, which could be combined in different ways by rotating the disks.
		Lull's devices were far more complex than our simple example might suggest, with several containing as many as sixteen different words or symbols on each disk.

		Lull was also married, to a woman named Blanca; together they had two young children, but the young courtier was living a life of dissipation, investing his considerable artistic and intellectual talents in seducing one woman after another.
		From that moment on Lull began, by prayer and meditation, to develop a strategy that was to occupy his mind, heart, and strength for the rest of his life: to bring the Gospel of Jesus’ love to the followers of Islam.
		Lull’s driving passion was to see the Church reformed, freed from luxury and pluralism, and willing to set aside its best preachers as missionaries, trained in linguistics and supported by a percentage of the Church’s resources.

		Raymond Lull was a strange combination of mystic and scientist, as such perhaps a precursor of those of us who find ourselves occupying that same uneasy middle-ground in these late days of the twentieth-century.
		Lull was most interested in using the Ars Magna to construct examples which he felt would demonstrate the infallibility of Christian doctrine, and thus prove the superiority of Christianity over Islam.

		Raymond Lull would have seemed an unlikely person to remind the church of its missionary vision.
		He developed a passion to win Moslems to Christ and took up the challenge of the Grand Mufti of Bugia: "If you hold that the law of Christ is true and that of Mohammed false, you must prove it by necessary reasons,"--that is, by air-tight logic.
