VR, Dire Wolves, And A Lesser Kind Of Omnipresence

The intention of Babel wasn’t to make bricks. The intention of Babel was to make a way to heaven that didn’t involve the atonement of sin. And in that intention is the express reason that that effort was stopped on the heels of forced multiculturalism by God. Doing wrong things is one kind of problem. But doing great wrong things is entirely different, because that first word often hides the second.

Who wouldn’t want a tower to heaven. Everyone wants to get to Heaven. Everyone wants paradise and eternal life and all the perks of being north of the pearly gates, But there’s one catch. Despite the wants, no one gets there unless God wants them there first. Because like it or not, He’s kind of in charge. And we hate that, if we’re being perfectly honest. That’s the kind of honesty that we define, not God, because God’s definition of perfectly honesty is way more perfect than ours and doesn’t account for our best intentions and asphalt. God gets to decide who is like him and who is not.

So, where does this tie into Dire Wolves and VR?

What the next two videos and get back to me.

and

Two

We’re trying, again, to get to God outside the means that God gave us to do so. In the due passage of time both the world of ancient ruins and Dire Wolves, ceased existing in time and space according to the perfect will of God. For whatever reason the Dire Wolf was removed from the food chain, you can rest assured that behind it was an all knowing and perfectly good God. Resting even more assuredly in his omnipresence. And the same goes for the temple that was destroyed, like Jesus said it would be, that you can now tour with a VR headset (read as blindfold). A tour I might add that allows you right into the holy of holies, exactly like a sinner like you would never be able to do. I’m beginning to sense a theme here.

What both of these scientific and technological breakthroughs show us is that we are exactly the same kind of people, that could barely figure out bricks and what to use them for. A tiny step above the cavemen we are told we evolved from as if the sinful heart of either wouldn’t be a dull creature to the Almighty

What we don’t want is a predator that used to hunt us down in packs, to once again hunt us down in packs. But we’ll take the stolen glory of being able to put such a beast in a zoo and file it under “Dominion of the Beast of the Field.” What we don’t want is a return to the temple system of killing a years' worth of livestock to atone for our sinful hearts and hands. But we will take a fake video game version that makes sure no animals were harmed in the production of our morality.

The macabre time travel that we participate in this charade is godless. And the kind of confusion that the Lord would have to inflict on a world with Duolingo would be unthinkable. But that’s kind of the point. Or do you think that an all-powerful God couldn’t make it so that DNA research could never be done again. Or that the idea of a virtual reality was as confusing to you as Greek is to the unlearned. You’re letting your ignorance show that you have no concept of what All Powerful means. Alongside All Knowing and Always Present.

Ignorance is only bliss when you do what you’re told in faith and not what is suggested in suspicion. There’s a Jurassic Park Quote here I can feel it. And you can too likely, But no low hanging fruit for you. You have to climb the tree of knowledge to understand how far down is from up. And if the climb didn’t dissuade you, a talking snake would sound no warning bells. which is exactly why we are here in the first place.

Still thinking we know better.

“And the Lord said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech. So the Lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
