Detective Deft Defector on Nostr: Technology brought the Bible to people's homes and raised literacy. It brought us ...
Technology brought the Bible to people's homes and raised literacy. It brought us closer to God. Now technology has brought us an immutable measure of our professions and our devotions in life, prying open our potential and amplifying each of our own successes. This enriches indirectly everyone elses' lives in the process. This creates a generally happier world which, conjecturally, seems to foster religious perspectives and practice. It certainly makes sense financially. Not everybody has gas money to even get to church or time to go if they wanted to.
The apple brought Adam and Eve knowledge. It also got them kicked out of a perfect land. The printing press brought knowledge. That led to distrust in human institutions and religious and political upheavals-an exit from the temple. Now technology has brought us absolute scarcity and transferability, a monetary system that not only incentivizes productivity, longevity and patience but inevitably fosters an imagination-newly at peace in the world despite the constant stressors of clearly narcissistic and self absorbed neocons, wokists and leeches-begins to view the world through the lense of philosophy, of the profound, of the infinite. An exit from self.
We left the garden and built a temple. We found snakes in it and made off to create structure for ourselves. We built within it a means that birthed a metric as precious, immutable and as finite as our time.
We were banished, lured into safety, fled to independence, and fought and died for systems that would maintain it. We were forced to reconcile with the most adulterous mechanisms of manipulative systems, and in the name of peace and comfort, bent over backwards to keep them alive.
Every war is a banker's war. It took thousands of them and what little peace was in between for man to finally ascend to the point that each man could hold his pursuits in life in a device in the palm of his hand. Each computer can be a stalwart of each his own security. Each mother or father can be a pillar in the lives they create. Each generation can build in a system that inspires each to leave more than they were given.
Hardship is motivation both in nature and in the human psyche. It can break or build both individuals and societies. Now, for the first time in history-to our knowledge-there is security and there can be peace. In the exit from the natural world, the contrived world, and arguably, our contrived selves, we are able to view the world from the lense of objectivity and posterity.
Bitcoin does not fix everything. It is not a religion, but it does come with a lot to learn. It is not a physical place, but it can create security for our physical and mental contributions to our shared world. Bitcoin is not a business, but it does create money in the most honest fashion ever known.
To everyone who has come along for the journey into a previously non existent world, welcome. I don't fein to know the next step, humanity's next exit, but it seems only fitting that God's work will be done through it again. And this time, we will not flee from what has been. For the first time in history, we will race to what could be.
