Meta And A.i.: New Monastics Can Lead A Reality Revolution

Meta boss Mark Zuckerberg this week promotes an extension of virtual reality, through artificial intelligence transplanted into our seeing, thinking and feeling 24/7.  Its purpose is not pure.  It extends his empire, his profits, and a world view based on deception and greed.  It will lead to a break-down of the mental, spiritual and physical health of populations.

The good news is that grass roots new monastic movements such as The Community of Aidan and Hilda alert and enlist people to a revolution that requires us to be real.  We are not against progress. Artificial Intelligence can be used as a good servant, but it is a bad master.

We become real about who we are, what our deepest callings are, who our truest being is.  We resist and reject things that are artificial, selfish,  second-hand, manipulative: the flotsam of hidden persuaders.

We practice spiritual, mental and physical disciplines that express our God-given responsibility to discern wisely, to grow into wholeness, to reflect heaven on earth.  

We place Artifical Intelligence into the management of Jesus Christ.
