{{RfD|It's hard to tell because the language is so jumbled, but I don't see the notability of this artist. The article seems to be a direct, rough translation from the French article. For what it's worth, the corresponding article on enwiki was deleted (see [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Athanasio_Celia&oldid=111783704 the deletion discussion]).}}

===Publication of scientific study proving the existence of God (2006, 2015, 2018)===

The publication ("God's letters")<ref>Forth publication</ref> is about a man who in 2001 recorded a vision, which contained 132 capital letters of the Greek alphabet that created a quadrangular shape 11 to 12. A study revealed that the text is readable in 115 different ways in the ancient Greek language and parallel it encloses depictions and symbols. Besides, it can be simultaneously deciphered mathematically. The whole process of the deciphering shows off an unbreakable mathematical, geometrical and theological coherence which in the end presents 10 big revealing texts. The vision-text, which has as its principal symbol the crucifix of Jesus Christ, turned out to be the Contemporary Revelation.

The German edition of that study ("Der Logos - Der Gottes Beweis"<ref>Second publication</ref>), is published by the same protestant publisher who also publishes the renowned "German biographical encyclopedia covering persons related to the history of the Church".<ref>German biographical encyclopedia covering persons related to the history of the Church | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biographisch-Bibliographisches_Kirchenlexikon</ref>. Furthermore the German edition is broadly accepted by German Christian communities who also represent it through their bookstores.<ref>Bookstore of the diocese in Stuttgart|https://www.buchdienst-wernau.de/gesamt-sortiment,vlb_book_details?vid=isbn13-9783883099682</ref><ref>Bookstore of Veritas -- https://www.veritas-shop.com/list?quick=athanasio+celia&cat= </ref> Finally, is as well important, that the book is already registered in the "Index Theologicus"<ref>Index Theologicus | German | https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Index_theologicus</ref> of the University of Tübingen.<ref>Evangelisch-Theologische Fakultät Tübingen | German | https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evangelisch-Theologische_Fakult%C3%A4t_T%C3%BCbingen</ref>
