“Heaven is always one more booster away.” That may be true—but not in the way they think.

Charles, I always appreciate your nuanced takes as well as your solutionary (https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/becoming-solutionary/201903/becoming-solutionary) approach. You not only expose and examine the challenges we face, but you also offer counter-positions to combat the destructive narratives.

To deepen your understanding of the tyrannical technocratic vision, I highly recommend this video featuring a speech by Dr. Yuval Noah Harari, top advisor to Klaus Schwab:

Here is a teaser to whet your appetite:

“Now, in the past, many tyrants and governments wanted to do it, but nobody understood virology well enough, and nobody had enough computing power and data to hack millions of people. Neither the Gestapo nor the KGB could do it.

“But soon, at least some corporations and governments will be able to systematically hack all the people. We humans should get used to the idea that we are no longer mysterious souls. We are now hackable animals.

“Data might enable human elites to do something even more radical than to just build digital dictatorships. By hacking organisms, elites may gain the power to re-engineer the future of life itself, because once you can hack something, you can usually also engineer it.

“And if indeed we succeed in hacking and engineering life, this will be not just the greatest revolution in the history of humanity, this will be the greatest revolution in biology since the very beginning of life 4 billion years ago.

“For 4 billion years, nothing fundamental changed in the basic rules in the game of life. All of life for 4 billion years, dinosaurs, amoebas, tomatoes, humans, all of life was subject to the laws of natural selection and to the laws of organic biochemistry.

“But this is now about to change. Science is replacing evolution by natural selection with evolution by intelligent design, not the intelligent design of some god above the clouds, but our intelligent design. And the intelligent design of our clouds—the IBM cloud, the Microsoft cloud—these are the new driving forces of evolution.”

Mother nature is and created the "best technology" there is. Through their Descartes lens, I know the technocrats like to believe their new stuff is so very "man made" genius and pure creation, but EVERY SINGLE piece of mod tech, is a pale reflection/mimic (and usually flawed) copy of mother natures technological perfection. We see flaw in her mechanisms that we must correct, simply because we dont recognise our own stupidity/ignorance of understanding her logic or vision. So we seek to correct. Like a 7yr old, who doesn't understand a problem as an adult does, but determines a solution, that can seem pure genius, depending on the perspective.

We have understood mothers tech, from the purely Descarte perspective. We used to understand it at a soul level from the wholistic perspective, but as our villages and tribes expanded, I think we grew outward focused and forgot our soul technology focus.

I love your ever hopeful style Charles, hold that tight, as I think darker days are coming and those of us will need it to help light our path to the dawn.
