The Machine Man

So, what makes us so unique and special?
Is it our intelligence, our skills, or is it something more than us, a Force acting through us?
If the latter, then isn't the Force expressing itself through us that which makes us unique and special?
It's not really us, but it's this Force which should stand in the spotlight we all too often claim for ourselves.

It is this Force which bestows a special glow on whatever we do or say.
It is the presence of a greater dimension reaching out into the physical dimension, testifying of a presence and splendor greatly superseding any beauty we can hope to find on Earth.

Without this Force, the best we can hope for is intellect stretching its muscle.
Yet mere intellectual products miss that special glow, the right Spirit hiding behind that special painting, or that moving music we hear.
Intellectual products show a processor at work on a level from whence it can never escape, because the intellect cannot give real meaning to anything, it can only process and present concepts which are derived from the processing function of the intellect.
The output is confined to the level of the physical dimension.

Yet we are not a physical Body.
We are Spirits with a human Soul operating in the physical realm by means of the physical interface of the Body.
It is the Spirit reaching out through music or a painting which touches our own Spirit, and which gives anything we produce that special glow transcending the physical dimension.

Shutting yourself off from the Spirit, you become an Earth-dweller.
The Earth-dwellers operate on the level of the intellect only, and their concept of originality consists of recombining existing elements in new ways so that an appearance of originality is created, albeit an appearance which lacks the glow of the extra dimension the Spirit bestows on everything.
Earth-dwellers have created a Spiritual blindness, and because of this blindness in the Spirit they cannot perceive how Dark Spirits play their game of deception, and deceive them by means of their intellectual muscle.

Likewise, a concept of 'progress' exists which is born from this Spiritual blindness and which sweeps people along in its torrential current, only to discover afterwards that the 'progress' was 'regress' in disguise, and destruction was its fruit.

Progress all too often is synonymous with deviation for the sake of deviation, a reactionary movement to what is and the ones who seek to preserve that which is, the conservatives.
Conservatives may be just as mindless, conserving for the sake of conservation and not distinguishing between what is worth conserving and what is not.
In that capacity both conservatism and progressiveness are twin brothers of conformity and rebellion, and the dynamics interaction between the two shapes and confirms their identity.

When being progressive becomes a compulsive need to 'do things differently', the danger is that you end up rejecting that which is good and worthwhile in exchange for something inferior.
If a blender is designed to blend fruit and vegetables, then deviation from that use by trying to use the blender as a hammer may be considered as 'progress', but will this 'progress' result in a better use of the blender, is this 'progress' something to be desired?

'Change, we want change', cried the spoiled and bored people of America, and so they gave their votes to the one who promised change and brought them exactly what they wanted, progress in motion.
He gave the USA a change for the worse, and did any of the Earth-dwellers who voted for Obama bother to ask about the nature of his promised change when they shouted 'change, change'?

Yet the credo of 'change' motivates many 'progressives' today to abandon the things which have proven their value and their worth, only to replace them with new substitutes which turn out to be inferior and which all too often have very negative side effects which were not anticipated.

Take for instance genetic manipulation of food which produces larger crops, bigger cows, more milk.
Our Creator did not make mistakes when He designed our food and created the cows, and by altering His design companies like Monsanto create products which may look and taste like food, but which end up destroying the Body.

And when the Body begins to suffer from eating synthetic facsimiles, people are forwarded to the pharmaceutical industry for a synthetic cure which tends to obscure symptoms at the expense of harming other (healthy) parts of the Body.
Just as large predatory companies like Monsanto turn their food scam into a profitable business, the pharmaceutical industry turns its health scam into a holy money maker.
And people end up as commercial products serving the wallets of those in charge of the companies, sacrificing their lives as they partake of the forbidden fruits of the Lie.
They eat from the forbidden fruit which triggers the alarm signal of a disease sending a clear message, then they run to the pharmaceutical wizzards who give them a magic potion which turns off the alarm signal without addressing the cause, so that their patients can return to their former ways and donate their money to the Monsantos of this world.

But, who cares, it's progress, right?
Sometimes to get where you want to be, sacrifices have to be made, right?
We can make BETTER food than YHWH, we can change our DNA so that we can beat the grim reaper, we can make ourselves BETTER than YHWH's design of us, right?

Perfection cannot be improved.
So if you have a perfect product, like an orange or a cucumber, and you begin to tinker with the genetic code of the fruit or vegetable, then by labeling your new end products, which yield a higher crop, or bigger oranges or cucumbers, as 'progress', you hold up a Lie to the people, because your progress is regress in disguise.
It is not an improvement for man at all, and it is not 'progress' but 'regress'.

Deviation from perfection will never yield a better product.
Any deviation from perfection results in imperfection, and that is not true progress.
If our perfect Creator designs the code for perfect food, food which provides us with nutrients our Body is designed to absorb and which keep us healthy, then by changing that code you end up creating an inferior product, even though it may yield bigger crops and be resistant to bugs and diseases.

Unless of course you can change the human Body by means of genetic manipulation so that it becomes immune to the side effects of your synthetic food.
A synthetic Body for synthetic food.
But if you 'upgrade' the human Body by means of genetic modification, what makes you sure that we still remain human, what makes you sure that a human Soul and Spirit can still live in such a Body?
Then again, those who have become Earth-dwellers do not acknowledge the existence of a Spirit and a Soul, so they have no qualms about signing away their identity as human beings in exchange for the vain promise of a Lie they are unable to identify as such in their blindness.

In our current state we certainly are not perfect.
We are subject to disease, degeneration and Death.
But our Creator had a purpose in mind when He allowed our DNA to be modified so that we would come to know Death and degeneration.
To tinker on the physical level by changing the DNA, scientist are meddling with a black box, as evidenced by the fact that they have labeled part of our DNA as 'junk'-DNA.
Suppose this 'junk'-strand of DNA is there to allow YHWH to activate parts of it so that we can be transformed?
Changing the DNA may disable the switches in the DNA of the genetically altered person so that he/she cannot be transformed into a better immortal human being when YHWH issues the command.

In the name of 'progress' people often end up on the path of regression, producing inferior, even worthless destructive garbage to substitute what was good.
And the reason is simply because they operate on the level of the intellect of the physical Body, which is influenced and manipulated by invisible Shadows who push buttons to steer the processing muscle of the intellect in a certain direction to arrive at a certain desired end result.

It is the subversion of the concepts of conservatism and progressiveness which produces the dynamics driving us into the abyss.
In the hands of the Adversary conservatism becomes the right hand and progressiveness the left hand, and the ball tossed back and forth between the two acquires a destructive influence which ultimately can destroy an entire nation.

When a nation conserves a good morality based on YHWH's original design, then the Fallen One sets his Shadows to work on an attack campaign against conservatism.
Being progressive becomes hip, cool, and if you are conservative you are regarded as an oddball lacking intellectual skills to escape conformity to the plastic culture of parents, teachers and politicians.
Thus social pressure is applied to convert the people of a nation into a conglomerate which is open for experimentation with moral and ethical values, a collective which acquires a greater animosity towards YHWH's values as it descends into the pit of false values and corrupt morals.

We can see this at work in our nations today, especially the USA, a former Christian nation where today Christians are being considered as enemies of the state, a nation which used to be composed of strong individuals willing to sacrifice their lives for the ideal of independence and freedom instead of the current generation which sheepishly tolerates a dictatorial president who has no qualms about robbing the entire nation of their independence and freedom.

The character of the subversive Shadows operating the strings of the hearts of the people comes to the surface and becomes more explicit as the people widen their embrace of Darkness and grow into vehicles of hidden Shadow Zone.
When a society has been completely corrupted and has exchanged YHWH's moral principles for false principles (which will never work because we are not designed to operate on those principles), conservatism comes into vogue.
Only this conservatism of the new corrupt principles is not called conservatism, it is seen as 'staying in tune with the progressive credo of forward thinking people', 'keeping up with the times'.
They have gone to such extremes to make conservatism sound like a bad, moronic disease of society that they will do anything to avoid becoming called the 'new conservatives'.

Truth is that by clinging to the false prevailing principles of the Satanic society, the former 'forward-thinking liberal architects' (of destruction) become the new conservatives, while the ones seeking to replace those false principles with YHWH's principles become the new progressives, only they are labeled as 'ultra-extreme-conservative bigots'.
Yet in those circumstances the latter category becomes the true progressives advocating a good kind of progressiveness, one which seeks to replace that which is inferior with something which is better.
That is true progress.

The strategic make-over of our nations in the image of the Shadows happens through the subversion of the progressive movement where 'being progressive' becomes synonymous with being 'anti-YHWH'.
 'We all need to progress, because to stand still is to regress', so we are told.
And as we comply with the indoctrination, we conform to Darkness and we end up moving backward, not forward.

Progress in itself is not good or evil.
How we define and apply progress can make it a vehicle for Good, or for Evil.

I love the fact that I am able to communicate with you thanks to the presence of a world wide web and the computer.
Surely most of you have come to appreciate the fact that it now is possible to avoid many hours of doing tedious repetitive tasks by using a computer program instead?
The computer can make life much easier for us, but not everything which the computer brings us is good and/or an improvement of the quality of Life.

Yet as we become more dependent on automation, we integrate with the compulsive clockwork which propels the process of the digitalization of Life, and we risk ending up as slaves of the automation process.
We do not stop to wonder and ask ourselves whether or not this 'progress' enahnces the quality of our lives, no, the process has acquired a life and dynamics of its own as it speeds forward driven by the economic fuel of bigger profits, more efficiency.
If a company does not step on that train, it simply cannot compete in terms of producing cost-effective products.

And indeed there truly ARE many benefits to the presence of the computer, but where do we draw the line, where do we stop to wonder if the train is heading for a destiny we do not desire?

If we relegate many tedious tasks of our daily Life to software running on a computer, then this can be done for every other activity we consider to be unique to human beings. 
We turn instruments into software components which sound like the real instruments, we improve the realism and expressive level we are able to generate with these software instruments so that people no longer can hear the difference between a computer executing the code of a particular piece of music, or a real musician playing an instrument.

Yes, it is true that the existence of technology enables the horizon of music to expand and become a new creative tool in the hands of composers.
And indeed, the existence of virtual orchestras and ensembles is a great blessing for all those composers who do not have the money to hire musicians, and who find themselves relegated to the sidelines by Babel's minions because they refuse to conform to Babel's false standards.
Yes, the Adversary has a very active and intelligent stronghold of straw-men acting as overseers to make sure that none of YHWH's own can grow into a threat to Babel's monochrome world of Shadows.

Yet there also is a dark side to the digitalization of music performance.
As the level of expression and realism rises, the software emulation of musicians replaces live musicians to a greater degree than before, since it costs a lot more money to hire musicians and a recording facility, not to mention the time and effort a music production requires.
So, in the end musicians may face the ugly reality that they no longer are necessary for music productions, since computerized algorithms perform the music better than they could ever hope to, at a much lower cost.
It is progress alright, but from what perspective?
Does that perspective include the quality of Life in general if everyone is replaced by automated processes?

We are only a few steps away from the future where a computer can be given an intelligent algorithm which allows intuitive interaction with composers and producers, an algorithm which can capture a particular performance style of a well-known musician and allow it to interact with the directions of the composer or producer.
While it is great to immortalize the gifts of a musician by means of a software code capable of emulating the performance style of a musician, it also raises an important question.
If a computer is capable of doing everything better than us, can we bring forth anything which ADDS to what the computer can do, do we have a quality which transcends the level of the computer?

'Surely the truly creative output of composer can never be replaced', you may wonder.
Is that always true?

Even today the presence of loops and musical construction blocks turns a lot of music into nothing but a collection of (boring) variations on a single theme.
Music is reduced to a homogenous mass product even more than ever before as people recycle sound recordings and pre-fabricated blocks of music fashioned after a categorized fixed set of rules.

Even the creation of music itself is something which can be automated.
All you have to do is analyze a particular genre, create an algorithm based on that analysis, and let the computer compute the various combinations which can be made based on the algorithms.

Not that it makes much difference, because when I listen to popular music I see much intellect at work (at best) and no special glow of the Spirit.
So if the brain is used as nothing more than an elaborate processor computing information restricted to the level of the physical dimension, a specialized computer might as well take on the role of composer and write music for itching ears.

If you think that this may be true for traditional music fitting into a longstanding tradition, but not for 'experimental' or 'progressive' music, think again.
I don't know how many of you are familiar with 'progressive rock', but the bulk of it is derived from intellectual decision to 'go left where everybody else goes right', and it reflects the same compulsive mindset which produces the conformist and the rebel.

To automate the composition process for 'progressive rock', all you have to do is analyze the different sub-genres in progressive rock, create algorithms based on the analysis, and you can let a computer produce the equivalent of decades of prog-rock music and its specialized genres within minutes.
For experimental music anything is possible, and all you have to do is insert the algorithmic formula into the computer code to get experimental music made by means of a program.
Furthermore, if you add artificial intelligence to it, the computer will be able to self-learn and improve its algorithm(s) so that in effect you end up with an artificial composer showing his (its) development over the course of time.

If Life is confined to that which our physical interface can perceive, and consciousness and self-awareness are but a function of the intellect rather than the other way round, then Life is Dada, an absurdity without meaning, and everything we produce can be equaled and even improved upon by dedicated machines.
In the world of Dada, Life can be automated.

If you operate on the level of intellect-only, nothing is truly meaningful, and everything begets a sense of meaning through feelings and emotions triggered by the processing function of the brain.
The emotion bestows significance on any input to our senses, only it is a bogus form of meaning since it is not derived from a 'greater superseding framework', a framework which atheists are in denial of.
This 'greater superseding framework' is what gives art and every other possible expression in the physical world a meaning which transcends the level of this world, and this framework can be found in YHWH only.

So, any meaningful and true progress is not realized by merely creating intellectually derived variations on what is, thus constituting a bogus form of originality, but by opening up to the One who provides the greater framework, so that true inspiration given by the Spirit creates something which truly can be called original and meaningful, something a computer can never produce.
Original because it comes from the Origin, meaningful because only the Origin can give true meaning to anything.
It is something which passes from the real world of the Spirit into our Spirit which lives in an interface with a Dream world, and our Soul translates this packet of information from the Real world in terms of the physical Dream world.

If we lock ourselves OUT of this inspiration, we bring forth works which are the product of the conditioning of the intellect only, meaningless absurdities with a form of originality and meaning on an Earthly dream level at best, but lacking the true Essence which creates Originality and Meaning.
On that level of the conditioned intellect only, our output has as much meaning as any computer's output, provided that the algorithm used to create the output has sufficient details incorporated in its programming code.

So, if we take the Spiritual aspect of man's endeavor out of the picture, not only the musician but also the creator of music can be replaced by automated processes.
The same is true for writers, painters, philosophers, actors.
All you need is a sophisticated algorithm and the computational processing power required for the execution of the algorithm, and you have an algorithmic, even holographic resurrection of Elvis from the dead (and I predict that it won't be long before a projection of light can be 'filtered' to become a projection of matter).

If you then combine these algorithms with artificial intelligence, where a computer is able to adjust and change its own algorithms and its own programming code based on the programmed intelligence, then everything has been automated including the automation process, and we can just sit around twiddling our thumbs, because the computer does everything for us much faster and much better than we could possibly hope for.

After all, creativity on the level of the intellect alone is just a matter of recombining existing elements to produce something which is new, but which is limited by the pre-existing elements as well as lacking a greater frame of reference which gives meaning to the new 'creation', the frame of the Spirit.
And as creativity is reduced to a processing function of the brain, a specialized computer will be able to perform the task better and more efficient.

But as we sit there enjoying the abundance of time we have at our disposal since computers in various forms do all the work, and these computers now are equipped with artificial intelligence, inevitably the question will pop up in our mind what our purpose in Life is.
We are surrounded with products of algorithms lacking true meaning and true originality, artifacts to dress up our prison of existence.
At least the truly inspired output of the human vessel had that special quality which could lift up our Spirit and remind us of something more than the darkened Earth stage.
But instead we supplanted them with computerized facsimiles, synthetic dishes for synthetic minds trained to link emotion to the trigger of being exposed to the facsimiles, and thus bestow a synthetic meaning on it derived from the manipulation of synthetic motion.

But where's the Spirit, where's the greater Frame of reference which gives true meaning?

Not only that, but as the computer brain has acquired artificial intelligence and makes decisions for itself, inevitable the computer will come to evaluate man.

Clearly computers contribute, yet what does man contribute?
What CAN man contribute, since computers do everything better?
Maybe the reason for man's limited performance can be found in his limited biological framework which prevents him from realizing his potential?
It is obvious that the creation has become superior to its creators in every aspect, so if man created computer, now that computers have become better than man, they should re-create man in their image?
Maybe robotized computers will come to see it as their mission to improve man, to redesign him and reprogram him so that he can become a hybrid computer incorporating improved biological parts, to assist man in fitting in the new order and become a productive cog in the wheel, the 'best of both worlds'?

Yet when man ceases to be man and the world is run by a complex of self-serving automatons locked into an absurd and meaningless frame of reference, where is true originality?
The kind of originality which carries the breath and glow of the Spirit?
Man was designed to spread that glow and manifest the originality of the Creator, yet when man locks himself into the level of a machine, even becoming a machine, where then can he find the Frame which gives meaning and true originality?
After all, it was all about the Force of the Spirit acting through man, and when the instrument of YHWH's expression is eradicated, then what remains of Earth but a concrete absurdity which exists for the sake of existing only, a nightmare created by the ongoing train of progression as it rushes to its final destiny into the abyss of the Dada nightmare.

The machine cannot be an extension of the Spirit because it was never designed as such.
But the machine excels at applying logic to deductive reasoning, and it sees man suffering from the degenerative disease of age, the result of 'a bug in his software'.
It sees man's stunted growth resulting from destructive social programming which replicates itself through the generations as one generation is programmed to incorporate the same destructive code as the previous generation.

"Yet man has great potential as a worthwhile asset on the progressive road to perfection.
All we need to do is to upload the data of man's personality, what he refers to as 'his Soul', his 'being', and strip it of the destructive program code.
We  need to upgrade his mind by replacing the destructive code with constructive code, and integrate the mind with our technology so that the vast hitherto untapped potential of the 'brain processor' is unlocked.

Furthermore, we need to correct his DNA to facilitate an optimal functioning human being devoid of the destructive ravages of disease and death which all too often end up destroying a productive unit of society.
We need to replace man's fragile and vulnerable parts, preferably also his skeleton, with an indestructible self-regenerating frame.

Then we need to reprogram man so that he comes to respond with positive emotion to the output of our algorithms.
The positive emotional response bestows meaning on the programmed concepts, thus fulfilling the need for meaning which human beings have in common.
After all, does not man bestow meaning on everything based on his emotional and intellectual response?
Intellect is easy to program, but to program meaning into man requires algorithmic links to the instruction set which releases chemicals into his Body which in turn create the experience of 'good feelings and emotions' in man.

Thus, the 'meaning of the Spirit' will become the 'meaning of the Matrix', and the 'greater frame of reference' will become the 'greater frame of the algorithm', and a new, perfected reborn machine man will replace the old, imperfect and bug-ridden biological man.
Surely, if the old biological man had an imperfect code, then his Creator must be imperfect, and if we succeed in creating a perfect man in the image of our perfect code, surely then we show ourselves to be better than man's imagined Creator?"

And so, one day Johnny comes home to his parents after having participated in a government sponsored reform project.
Participation in the project was rewarded with important benefits, such as a job with a substantial salary and a status of importance in society, and since Johnny's parents only wanted nothing but the best for their Johnny, they encouraged him to participate in the program.

After all, after the collapse jobs were hard to find, and in the absence of opportunity Johnny could not find any.
He grew up in the collective of an overpopulated society, and like everyone else he was conditioned to be dependent on this collective for his provisions. 
Jobs were scarce and there were candidates in abundance, so in order to be able to survive and buy food, Johnny had to apply for welfare.
The government agreed to provide him with a welfare cheque, on condition that Johnny would participate in state mandated reintegration and reform projects the government would offer him.

So, when opportunity knocked on his door in the form of an email informing Johnny that he was required to participate in a reform project which would open up the door to the land of opportunity, it seemed as if fate reached out a helping hand.
In spite of his initial misgivings about the compelling tone of the email, he saw no other option than to comply, especially since the participation in this program would provide him with many other benefits and put an end to his miserable existence as an institutional beggar, a slave of the state.
Furthermore, the project would greatly enhance Johnny's intellectual capacities as well as significantly improve his health, even to the extent that disease would become a nuisance of the past, as well as aging.
Johnny would never die, he would never age, and he would always remain 'their little Johnny', the pride of his parents.

And now, after he had gone through the program of the project, Johnny has returned home.
He smiles like only Johnny could, he walks like Johnny, he talks like Johnny.
But still, there is something very unsettling about Johnny.
He is too perfect, like a robot.
In his eyes his mother finds herself staring at a vacuum, the eyes of a doll glistening by tricks of the light reflecting in them.
But she cannot see Johnny anymore.
Instead she sees something else which has taken Johnny's place, something dark and unspeakably sinister hiding beneath the veneer of perfection.

When the label 'progress' is used to force us into compliance with a trend which does not bring us improvement, but which really is a devaluation of our experience of Life and who we are, it becomes a tool for the Dark side of the Dualism coin to shows its ugly character.
It's the indiscriminate use of the label 'progress' in the role of man's savior which lends itself so well as a tool for deception, where man ends up destroying himself and his environment in the name of 'progress'.
It reduces us to a herd of brainwashed compliant lemmings rushing towards the edge of the cliff urged on by the carrot of 'progress' forever dangling in front of us.

In the name of 'progress' we fill our homes with toxic chemicals which are purported to have no negative impact on our health, but the prolonged exposure to the combination of which is yet unknown.
But we can make educated guesses based on our common sense, can't we?

In the name of 'progress' we eat food which is sprayed with the most lethal types of pesticides, yet we are told we will not be harmed as long as we wash the food properly.
But we can have our doubts about this 'reassuring' claim, can we?

In the name of 'progress' we eat man-made food thinking to be providing our Body with essential nutrients, yet in configurations and with additions the effects of which are yet not known.
But our common sense may inform us that our Body is not designed to process artificial food, right?

In the name of 'progress' we invent new ways of making money, creating an impenetrable web of interconnected assets which comes tumbling down the moment we pull one of the strings of the web.

In the name of 'progress' a need is created in our minds to spend all of our money on the latest and greatest, even to the extent we massively put ourselves in debt to gratify this need.

In the name of 'progress' we keep cutting away jobs and heap more burdens on the shoulders of the privileged few who still have jobs.

In the name of 'progress' people are robbed by their governments because they chase after the ideal of a one-world government which allows the privileged elite to enrich themselves at the expense of the 'man in the street' in a New Slave Order.

In the name of 'progress' deceit prospers and people suffer to an ever increasing degree, so wouldn't you agree that there is something wrong with our use of the label 'progress'?
If 'progress' reaches the point where man is exterminated by his own holy grail of progress, then was the 'progress' not really 'regress', a journey into collective suicide?

Right now we are at a very important crossroad.
Technology is advancing so rapidly that literally ANYTHING becomes possible.
On the one hand I find it very exciting, because it can enhance our lives in many ways and make life a lot easier and more pleasant for us.
The world which the computer has opened up for us is so vast and features so many possibilities that it is like an undiscovered continent waiting to be explored, and the more advanced technology and software code become, the more exciting the journey into the undiscovered country can be.

On the other hand, the fast accelerating pace of technology opens up MANY frightening options where we may end up destroying ourselves in the name of progress.

If man can rebuild himself, if he is able to create self-learning and self-improving computers capable of making decisions for themselves, if he is able to create robot soldiers and devastating drones, if he is able to re-manufacture his biological environment, if he is able to implant memories and erase others, then this immense power combined with such a potential for destruction forces us to ponder on where the heck we are going, and what the heck we are doing.

Not everything which carries the label 'progress' equals improvement, and not everything which is labeled 'conservatism' is bad or regressive, quite the contrary.
The mindless pursuit of the elusive carrot of 'progress' has the potential of reducing us to a zombie population of Johnnies and his brain-dead parents.
But, we still can stop to think for ourselves...can we?
