I love the optimism of Peter Diamandis ( Tuesday's & Wednesday's posts). We do have more abundance and more possibilities and more empowerment on earth than ever before, and not just a little more. If humanity were morally perfect, I would be as confident in his great future vision as he is because today's technology is changing the world.
Technology explodes education. It explodes communication. It frees people from drudgery that used to imprison body and mind.
But technology also empowers evil. Just a small number of people - or one - can do a lot of damage. How many systems that we depend on are controlled by computers that could be controlled by someone with evil intent?
The corruptible nature of men and women is a major factor in our present and will be in our future. As Christians we recognize our need for God, and that our ultimate destiny is with Him.
