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!' 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.'
