P.I.D. Radio 9/13/10: Tom Horn — Forbidden Gates
from PID Radio · host Derek and Sharon Gilbert
SCIENCE IS not a bad thing in and of itself. But it's being used to essentially achieve apotheosis — to attain godhood — even though the chief proponents of the transhuman and posthuman movements probably wouldn't characterize their goals in theological terms.Tom Horn, co-author with his wife Nita of the forthcoming book Forbidden Gates, has been researching, writing, and speaking about the neo-gnostic direction of cutting edge genetics, robotics, artificial intelligence, and nanotechnology for years. He describes the state of the research, the clearly metaphysical goals of some of the leading scientists in these fields, and how badly prepared the church is to address these issues.Note: sadly, it's not possible for us to fix the poor connection with BlogTalkRadio tonight in post-production. While it's annoying to put up with the choppy audio, the information Tom brings to the table is well worth the trouble.Sharon and Derek will speak at the Supernatural Science and Prophecy Conference October 1 and 2 in Canton, Ohio. Other speakers include Tom Horn, Russ Dizdar, and Jeffrey Radt. For more information, see www.ControlledMinds.com.The Revelations Radio Network has a new website!
