Don does like it when people talk about him, but I doubt he could sit through four lectures
So he’s just gonna be there showing PowerPoint slideshows of him and his buddies? Lol.
You would think that a gay billionaire who’s obsessed with making himself immortal and putting forward intense surveillance and ushering in AI gods fervently would be most Christian’s definition of the antichrist. I know it’s mine, and I’m not even Christian anymore.
Edit: I am fine with the gay part, I just want to make that extremely clear before everyone rips me to shreds for being homophobic. I just think Thiel is evil.
The gay part is what makes it crazy, he thinks his money will protect him? The homophobia in the christian world is insane. Just because they're nice to your face, that doesn't mean they wouldn't hang you from a tree if they could. Fake nice is their thing.

Imagine I give you $100,000 today, tomorrow and every day thereafter. How long until you get tired of getting $100,000 each day?
After only a few days, most people's financial problems would be solved. After ten days, you will have received 1 million dollars. After a few months, you will have been able to purchase anything you've ever dreamed of.
How long, then, until money is meaningless to you?
Do you know how long it takes to have received 1 billion dollars?
27.4 years.
27.4 years of receiving $100,000 every day. A billion dollars is 10,000 $100,000s.
Some people have hundreds of billions of dollars. It is an astronomical number.
You can't imagine how much that amount of money changes a person. You will absolutely lose your mind and yourself.
No one should ever even possess anywhere near that level of money. It's way too much power.
People conflate rich people with millionaires and casually lump billionaires in with that group.
They are not the same. Billionaires are shells of humans, filled with the putrid sludge of a soul completely consumed by greed.
Do not listen to them. Do not believe them. They only tell you things they want you to believe. They will take everything from you, including your life.
A hard upper limit would solve a lot of problems in the world. Like once you reach a billion dollars you die immediately.
I like you pigup! You're 100% on the spot here.
Yup, I don't give a shit about the multi millionaire orthodontist who co-owns his practice, has a summer home and a boat and some sports cars. Heck a lot of small farmers are multi millionaires on paper.
I do care about the people who have enough expendable cash that they can throw 10M at a political endeavor without batting an eye.
Sorry but an orthodontist or a dentist who is a multimillionaire is only normal in the USA. It’s one of the reasons why healthcare in your country is unaffordable.
I just looked this up and they make big bucks almost everywhere, including Europe.
They have left us with only one solution to the billionaire problem. And they're trying to make that difficult too, with round-the-clock security. But everyone is vulnerable for a moment here or there.
Last night I chatted with my politically moderate neighbor, who is now considering leaving the country, and cheered Luigi, and a bunch of other shit that would have been "far left" a while ago, but I think is now permeating into the middle too.

I'm reasonably sure that Peter Thiel is ~~the~~ an antichrist. Seems exactly like the kind of people warned about in the Book, charlatans, fraudsters, those who worship the dollar over Jah.
Also his surveillance company is literally named palantir(the orbs from Lord of the rings that saurrumon has laying around, that have him a direct line to the bbeg
He should be cowering in his bunker
The event is sponsored by a non-profit that promotes “Christ in science and technology” or something.
Who We Are
We’re a community of thinkers, builders, artists, and leaders who are wrestling with what it means to live with purpose and conviction. We’re here to explore deeper questions, together.
And yes, we talk about Jesus.
Not in a pushy way. Not with religious jargon. But with honesty, clarity, and respect.
Because we believe Jesus is so much more than a religious figure. He's the answer to the longings we often try to fill with ambition, success, or self-discovery.
they "promote Christ" by spending a ton of time obsessing and talk about his antithesis.
"He's the answer to the longings we try to fill with ...[snip]... or self-discovery.
Oh yeah, don't try to figure out things yourself especially about yourself, gotta go to the approved pastor to know what you should think and feel!

He is desperate that people regard him as a deep and serious thinker. The trouble is, no interesting thought has ever crossed his mind. This is the reason for his pathetic hatred of academics. His university professors rightly saw a useless dweeb with an outrageous sense of self regard.
