Men Like Devils
H. G. Wells wrote a utopian fantasy called Men Like Gods. I borrowed from this to write about those megalomaniacal social engineers known as technocrats.
The most invasive form of technocracy is transhumanism which seeks to engineer human biology itself. Transhumanists tend to be monists or materialists for all practical purposes. Though many dabble in the occult since they love power—especially that which they can wield over others.
Transhumanism not only seeks to accelerate evolution by biology but seeks to incorporate cyborg implants directly into the human body, making a track-and-trace surveillance system impossible to escape.
Rejecting that which is—or the essence of reality—transhumanists seek to transform human beings into the image which they see fit. They want to significantly alter the body of every man, woman, and child on the planet.
They hate the face and breath of every human. So they demand we hide the first and smother the second. (Breath has traditionally been associated with the spirit.)
They hate the differences between male and female. For one thing they don’t want too many babies to be born. For another they want us to be more like gender neutral androids. But they envy God Who made us in His image—male and female created He us—and wish to blot out His likeness in all people of both sexes.
By their fruits you will know them. Here is why I say the technocrats and transhumanists are like demons:
They are nihilistic and destructive.
They prefer the synthetic to the natural, since they have more control over the former.
They lie all the time.
They despise humanity. Or at least the “common, unenlightened folk.”
They are excessively proud. To the point of being out-of-touch with reality.
And…most important to us common folk…they seek to usher in a world system where obeying the Two Great Commandments will be a crime.
Like all totalitarian systems they will permit no rivals. Whether the Lord God we are told to love whole-heartedly, a spouse/parent/child/coworker/neighbor/friend.
The emotions they use to manipulate us are those of Hell. Fear, rage, envy, jealousy, hatred. The reason the technocrats offer so little carrot is because they themselves are practically incapable of positive emotions. As useful as joy, happiness, pleasure might be as incentives, the technocrats don’t understand them enough fir bait.
