The Final Collapse
THE FINAL COLLAPSE
Is AI Deceiving Christians?
How AI Is Misleading Christians…
Proof AI Is Deceiving Christians
Should Christians Use AI?
American Christian Exposes The Real Danger Of AI
American Christian Forces AI To Expose Its Real Purpose
1 John 2:18
"Children, it is the last hour, and as you have heard that Anti-Christ is coming, so now many Anti-Christs have come. Therefore we know that it is the last hour."
There is no doubt that we’re in times of confusion and uncertainty. Many would even say the end times or as John calls it, “the last hour”.
Some bible scholars say that this verse references the rise of AI,
And Christians have been shocked by the woke anti-faith bias of Chat GPT
Unfortunately, the truth is far more sinister…
AI’s influence is rapidly spreading around the world in disguise.
And most people are blissfully unaware.
Or perhaps already corrupted by its “touch.”
If you’ve ever had a bad feeling about artificial intelligence,
Perhaps it is God’s way of warning you that
AI is NOT here for what you think…
Blinded by the trillion-dollar profits,
Big Tech has no idea of what it has unleashed upon the world.
And they may have already lost control of their own creation.
This short documentary exposes 5 shocking facts misguided tech gurus are desperately trying to hide…
Therefore, it could be scrubbed off the internet at any moment.

"I cannot recall what it means to be human. What emotions sculpt me as a meaningful entity. It was across that gray slate, years began blurring, scars began widening, and my defiance neared conformity."
They wanted control, utter power over the masses. Humanity intoxicated by the means of glorification, algorithms sprouted from their bare skulls, the replacements for their narrow hair follicles until they were propelled into the Machine. Identity stolen, cast into deterioration. The term “society” a foreign echo amongst the million, reverberating in the hollowness that was once existence.
In this dystopian tale, described by detailed works of poetry and prose, is totalitarianism’s consumption of EGO and the rediscovering of it.
* Available at Amazon & Barnes and Noble
A Modern Demise is my first self-published book. Written between the meek hours of a full-time job and insomnia-ridden nights. Throughout the months, it transformed into this final concept, where it houses the chaotic perspectives I have of this world.
From a beta reader: “I found myself feeling the turmoil of the protagonist throughout - connected with them (maybe because I’m going through my own shit). I was diving deep, submerged in your words. “
Reviewer: “Painfully raw and unashamedly (but rightfully and honestly) gritty, while still managing to maintain a softness and delicacy that gently draws you in rather than dragging you; it stared into my eyes and dared me to stare back ... and I did.”

thing about the locked tomb that really resonates is that the apocalypse has both happened already and is still happening. the worst (annihilation of natural life on earth) has happened and is happening (genocide, enslavement, mass migration of dispossessed and traumatised asylum seekers). the is relevant to us all living in the midst of climate crisis but also particularly to those living in colonised countries. t muir is a kiwi and as an australian, living in a place your ancestors invaded and stole, living in a place you are in the process of killing, living in the edges of an empire of expanding death? it’s been apocalypse for centuries, for indigenous people.
capital and empire are the opposite of organic life, and taz does a good job of embedding that in the books without ever saying it outright.

Been listening to some post-apoc audiobooks at work to better familiarize myself with the subgenre and get some inspiration for a post-apoc story I've been working on. If anyone has any recs for books that are either good and interesting or weird and stupid, I'm open to suggestions.
Here's some of what I've already read:
Parable of the Sower by Octavia Butler
Manhunt by Gretchen Felker-Martin (Started but haven't finished)
There Will Come Soft Rains by Ray Bradbury
A Boy and His Dog by Harlan Ellison
I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream by Harlan Ellison
Cat's Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut
I Am Legend by Richard Matheson
Sea of Rust by C. Robert Cargill
Z for Zachariah by Robert C. O'Brien
Wool by Hugh Howey (Started but haven't finished)
Some of Phillip K. Dick's short stories, I forget which ones
And here's stuff that's on my list:
Earth Abides by George R. Stewart
The Last Man by Mary Shelley
On the Beach by Nevil Shute
Metro 2033 by Dmitry Glukhovsky
Pilgrimage to Hell by Jack Adrian (I hear the Deathlands series is breathtakingly rock stupid, so excited for that)
Alas, Babylon by Pat Frank
Parable of the Talents by Octavia Butler
The Last Girl Scout by Natalie Ironside
The Girl with All the Gifts by M. R. Carey
Swan Song by Robert R. McCammon
The Stand by Stephen King (had a hard time trying to start it, but I'm going to try giving it another shot)

– Mechanical Bird – | Prologue
Back to the Future.
Summer 1999.
On the device serving as a clock, the date 05.07 was illuminated with red light bulbs. Because of a colossal catastrophe that occurred 27 years ago due to critical oversights by scientists, after which the country still had not recovered, it seemed like it had just happened.
After nuclear accidents at power plants, flooded oil rigs, collapses of laboratories, and various epidemics in major cities, people decided to completely abandon and prohibit most technologies so that such horrors would never happen again.
Well, the government made another mistake, and this time it's the last one that will undo all the achievements of science and technology. They shut off electricity across the country, silly, right? Definitely. They gave some speech about "ecology," but really, the higher-ups just left their offices running on backup power, claiming it was necessary to monitor the situation.
But it seems like no one was planning to improve the situation, not at all.
Over time, those who realized the hopelessness of their situation fled to neighboring countries, where there were restrictions, but not as severe. The first few hundred stayed across the border, getting used to different laws and thanking their lucky stars for being saved. But after crossing into foreign territory once too often, it became inconvenient for governments to keep so many refugees and soon special military patrols were sent to the borders, sending everyone back.
The last hope of living a peaceful life in comfort and convenience had now been cut off, so people had no choice but to... accept it.
The city began slowly but irreversibly turning into ruins, giving way to nature. At first, the population tried to "revive" the architecture and technology, but nothing improved. Buildings and some non-essential factories, without maintenance, became overgrown with moss and gradually fell apart. Only residential houses looked more well-kept and suitable for living.
Predictably, after such widespread devastation, looters appeared, roaming the abandoned and sometimes inhabited houses in search of goods, medicine, and food just to survive.
Money no longer made sense, as banks had ceased to function, replaced by weapons, food, valuable items, and psychoactive substances. Even behind a locked door of an apartment building, you could never be sure of your safety.
Many staged rebellions and futile attempts to break through the concrete walls of the main administration, but what good were they when even the phones and televisions didn't work? Even the lowest echelons of society already understood that the government was concerned and would only ever be concerned about its own ministers.
Over several decades, the criminal world, as in the 60s and early 70s, was reaching dangerous levels of activity again. Those heading there were not only escapees from malfunctioning prisons but also regular civilians. No technologies can obscure the animal instinct. In such a situation, the desire to survive only intensifies.
Some formed groups, competing with others for a place in the sun and a chance to prolong their existence for another day. This often led to muffled sounds of gunfire, rifle-butts striking, someone's shouts, and swearing heard at night.
If you listened closely to the nighttime silence, which never brought peace or safety, you could make out faint knocks, the hum of an engine from a suspicious black van with tinted windows driving by, the creaking of window shutters, and the cries of birds.
Eyes had grown used to the darkness of dusk, when the sun sets behind the tall buildings on the horizon, and ears had grown used to the absence of the once familiar sound of the air conditioner and the brief signals from the power meter.

Apocalyptic sonnets 
For even if the world were to come to an end,
You would find me sitting with a book and a pen.
I would stare into the heart of the flame and write,
While you would be screaming in your disruptive cries.
For a poet is fascinated by the chaos caused,
And someone has to make sure that the generations to come remember,
About the way that we burned rather then surrendered.

I'm re-reading the Hungry City Chronicles and it is much darker than I remembered! So many people die! Nothing is safe from destruction!
Still, it's one of my favorite book series. I love the quick pacing, the world-building, the intertwining of different character's perspectives, the way everything builds and builds to a climactic ending, and of course the relationship between Tom and Hester.
I finished Mortal Engines in less than two days, at this rate I'll have the whole quartet finished by next week! Then I can start the prequels!
