\sect{Pavel Florensky, a mathematician just ordained as a priest.}
...one of the defenders of the Name Worshipers
was Pavel Florensky, a mathematician just ordained as a
priest. (Florensky's personal papers show that his support of the
Mt. Athos Name Worshippers began as early as March 1913, before the
armed seizure of the Pantaleimon Monastery.) Florensky was a friend of
several of the leading mathematicians in Russia and would play an
important role in subsequent mathematical events. The Church council
failed to come to an agreement on Name Worshipping, and its work was
aborted by the October 1917 Revolution, which brought the Communists
to power.
After being dispersed from Odessa, most of the Name
Worshippers remained committed to their form of faith and did not
considerᾬthemselves defeated. In rural Russia they continued their
practices, now officially defined as “heretical,” and gradually
enlarged their following. The advent of World War I in less than a
year meant that the tsarist government had more pressing concerns than
quarreling with religious dissidents. Name Worshipping silently grew
in strength. The seizure of power by the Communists in 1917 actually
at first gave the Name Worshippers an unusual opportunity (later they
were cruelly persecuted). They were already an underground faith,
banned from the official churches, so when the Soviet regime launched
an anti-religious campaign and began to close churches and arrest
priests, the Name Worshippers, being invisible, were initially not
repressed. Indeed, they seemed to prosper from their banned
status. They needed no church buildings, no priests, no church
administration. Furthermore, they were not tainted with the
compromises with the Soviet authorities that the official Orthodox
Church was soon forced to make in order to exist. Reciting the Jesus
Prayer and worshipping the names of Christ and $\dpi$\ were practices
that one could do alone, in one’study or even in a closet
(When thou prayest, enter into thy closet”; Matthew 6:6).
Gradually the Name Worshippers began to extend their
influence to the cities where their presence was forbidden. A movement
that in its first stages was often supported by uneducated, sometimes
even illiterate, monks gradually attracted the attention of the urban
intelligentsia, especially mathematicians and philosophers. Ren__
Miller, a central European journalist who visited Moscow in the early
1920s, became intrigued with the underground religious movement of
Name Worshipping. He interviewed some of its adherents and announced,
“The best men of Russia lead this school, which proclaims the magic
power of the divine name; it is from the spread of its religious
doctrines that the true revival of Russian religion is generally
expected.”One of those “best men” was Dmitri Egorov, professor of
mathematics at Moscow University and future president of the Moscow
Mathematical Society.

"There is no such thing at this date of the world's history in America
as a viable independent mind. You know it, and I know it.
There is not one of you who dares to write his honest opinion, and if
you did, you know beforehand it would never appear in print.
Why is this?
It would be cut by your editors for being a waste of time, copy-space,
and money, and it would be ignored by your readers for being at least
strange, uncomfortable, and likely ugly.
I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinion out of the paper.
I am paid weekly for keeping your honest opinion out of the paper.
Others of you are paid similar salaries for similar things.
Any of you who would be so
foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets
looking for another --and almost certainly shittier-- job.
If I allow my honest opinions to appear in one issue
of my paper, before 24 hours, my occupation would be gone.
The business of the journalist is to destroy the truth, to lie
outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of celebrated
wealth and to sell his country and his mind for his daily bread.
You know it, and I know it, or if you don't you're on the street today for
the lackey stooge sad sack fool you truthfully are.
What folly for fools is this toasting an independent press?
We are the owned tools and the vassals of rich men behind the scenes.
We are the jumping jacks. They pull the strings, and we dance.
We are slaves. Our talents, our families, our possibilities and our
lives are all the owned property of other men.
We slaves, intellectual prostitutes own nothing meritable, we are
nothing meritable, and logically in broadcasting our lies, contribute
less than nothing."

INT. OSBOURNE'S BOAT - DAY

at a little table looking at a notice torn from a windowed
envelope.
OSBOURNE
... What?
... What?!
He brings the notice close, squints at it.
OSBOURNE (CONT'D)
... What the fuck?
He quickly shuffles through the rest of the mail, pulls out
another envelope, rips it open.
A MINUTE LATER
... What the fucking fuck?!
Osbourne paces, drink in hand, staring at another piece of
mail.
OSBOURNE (CONT'D)
What the fuck?
A MINUTE LATER
Osbourne is back at the table, drink half-consumed, listening
at the phone.
OSBOURNE (CONT'D)
