Whenever and wherever a Universal Censor is present, then and there is the [[judgment]] of [[Deity]]. And since the Censors always render their verdicts in liaison with Perfectors of Wisdom and Divine Counselors, such decisions embrace the united wisdom, counsel, and judgment of the Paradise Trinity. In this [[juridical]] trio the Perfector of Wisdom would be the " I was, " the Divine Counselor the " I will be, " but the Universal Censor is always " I am. "

The Censors are [[universe]] [[total]]ing personalities. When a thousand witnesses have given testimony—or a million—when the voice of wisdom has spoken and the counsel of [[divinity]] has recorded, when the testimony of ascendant perfection has been added, then the Censor functions, and there is immediately revealed an unerring and divine totaling of all that has transpired; and such a disclosure represents the divine conclusion, the sum and substance of a final and perfect [[decision]]. Therefore, when a Censor has spoken, no one else may speak, for the Censor has depicted the true and unmistakable total of all that has gone before. When he speaks, there is no appeal.

Most fully do I understand the operation of the mind of a Perfector of Wisdom, but I certainly do not fully comprehend the working of the [[adjudicating]] [[mind]] of a Universal Censor. It appears to me that the Censors formulate new [[meaning]]s and originate new [[values]] from the association of the [[fact]]s, [[truths]], and findings presented to them in the course of an investigation of [[universe]] affairs. It seems probable that the Universal Censors are able to bring forth [[original]] interpretations of the combination of perfect [[Creator]] [[insight]] and the perfected [[creature]] [[experience]]. This association of Paradise perfection and universe experience undoubtedly eventuates a new [[value]] in [[ultimates]].

But this is not the end of our difficulties regarding the working of the minds of the Universal Censors. Having made due allowances for all that we know or conjecture about the functioning of a Censor in any given universe situation, we find that we are still unable to predict decisions or to forecast [[verdicts]]. We very accurately determine the probable result of the association of [[Creator]] [[attitude]] and [[creature]] [[experience]], but such conclusions are not always accurate forecasts of Censor disclosures. It seems likely that the Censors are in some [[manner]] in liaison with the [[Deity Absolute]]; we are otherwise unable to explain many of their decisions and rulings.
