@jeff_bilbro AI Prometheans? A more fitting analogy, perhaps, not chess grandmasters but chessmen, characterized by a form of rationalist illiteracy wholly oblivious to a higher truth and power ultimately determining the rules, moves and outcome of the game itself. Their 'Oh shit! moment.'#

@jamespoulos Belief in history as a self-interested concept, I ask ya. As if the agency immanent to reality itself of the sovereignty, telos and might of the Living God somehow wouldn't have the powers of the air dead center in its sights or, as one #TechTheoBro said to the other, 'Surprise!'

Copy of tweet and quote tweet here:

No single pedagogical method is equal to the gospel transmission of a radical transformation in the meaning of power in the unitive core of the human being, whereby all the heart’s quests are revalued and hierarchies of history reversed. The last is now first and the first last.

I shouldn't worry about Thiel or his ilk. Ultimately, he represents the precarious order of false transcendence of a demonic-complex unmasked, like a thief in the night, by the closing of an incarnational circuit 'not of (t)his world.' Kingdom Reality for Real takes no prisoners.

It may help to say what the Messiah means by the 'reign of God' or 'Kingdom' or 'basileia' in New Testament Greek. It isn't heaven, a futurity, or where we go once we die. Rather, it's close at hand; a break-through into the Realness of _this_ realm; on Earth as it is in Heaven."
