Abstract
This paper aims at clarifying what kind of theology a Christian chaplain transmits to football players. It is grounded for a month-long observation inside the Christian Praxis of the Alouettes, the Montréal Canadian Football League team: prayer, chapel, Biblical study, and charity. The method of Spiritual Praxeology was used to treat the observation, by organizing the data according to seven structural questions (what, who where, when, why, how, how much?) then by elaborating the values inside the praxis in five degrees: material artefacts, personal and collective developments, ethical issues, relations to God. The research shows that the Montréal Alouettes Christian Praxis is not aimed to ask God to make the team win, but rather to let the Christian players be humble enough to ask God’s help in order to become as good as they can be.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
