Bill Gates says that the people he wants are the lazy ones because they can find new ways of doing things. 

At some point, technology and invention have changed from doing more with what we have to getting more so we can put all our resources into making our lives easy.


The truth is that life needs both competition and collaboration to grow. Different times call for different approaches. Neither should be demonized.

Does Christianity idolize cooperation? Or is the point to provide a landing pad for failed competitors?

The current globalist/nativist divide is not a divide between individualists and collectivists. It is not even a divide between secular and religious - it is a divide between addicts and realists.

The scariest part of what’s happening today is that the Globalists are addicts. They are addicted to their vision of a perfect world and will fight tooth and nail to reach their perfection.

Humans cannot create perfection. The human brain is not that from which all life springs, though it _is_ obviously our greatest asset.


Globalists idolize the human brain; believe it can do anything. This is false. The brain has its limitations.


Evolution clearly shows that the human brain is derived from concepts and processes outside of itself and its purview. The human brain, although great, is finite. We didn’t come from the brain - the brain came from us, and from God. Or physics, or evolution, or whatever you want to call it.

  

Invention itself is outside of the brain. The brain itself was invented - again, by God, Nature, Physics. The greatest mechanism of invention is sex and DNA. The idea that we can supplant that invention - that our brains are now chief inventors and nothing outside of them matters - is foolish. The process of invention predates the brain.

  

Every real inventor knows that there is no timetable for when invention happens. The Romans could have invented the steam engine - but they didn’t. We cannot control the timing of invention, and we cannot focus all our resources on it hoping that prosperity will pop out.

  

Globalists are attempting invert the relationship between mind and reality, and push a worldview where God, Life, evolution - all come from our brains. This is why they are attempting to build artificial Gods with AI, and why they believe everything will be automated. It is the pitch Sam Altman is giving right now to raise $7 Trillion dollars.

  

Even the development of AI shows that brain-first invention only goes so far. AI is a very impressive invention, but it has not at all lived up to the expectations of operation in the physical world. Many are still laboring on robots and self-driving cars, but the market success of AI has been on its information categorization and transmittal abilities. AI is taking white-collar jobs vastly more than any others. AI is a very useful map of the world - but it is not a useful entity in the world. AI people think that they are inventing a new world, but really all they are doing is reinventing the world of the mind. A better world of the mind is impressive, and clearly useful - but the world of the mind is not the real world. The mind is a tool to map the real world, not to be it.

  

Globalists like the idea that the world of the mind can be the real world because a perfect world is just that - an idea. A perfect world is not something we can create. Perfection is not real. Perfect is the enemy of the good. Needing perfection ends up draining more resources than it gives. Globalists need this perfect world - because they are addicted to it. Even as everything falls apart around them, they refuse to let go of their beautiful idea.

  

Perfection seems to be a function of comfort. Of the idea that everything that needs to happen and everything that will happen is already known - and the only thing holding back progress is other people.

  

The brain is not perfect - even though academics seem so gleeful to point out “cognitive biases” - they curiously seem to think that the human brain is birthing perfection. Maybe they think that their brain doesn’t have biases - only yours.

  

We cannot be thinking that the world will be ever be derived from the human brain. It won’t. The brain, and invention, will continue to help map and change the world. But God is the only fountain from which the world and life can come.
