Jenny Moonstone invited me on her stream to discuss precisely what technocracy is, and how it differs from my own worldview of Orthodoxy. We cover the basics of both, as well as Transhumanism, cosmology, ancient texts, the Bible, the roots of the New Age movement as fostered by wealthy oligarchs and social engineers, as well as much more!

For us there are no dialectics: creation is not set against divine energy and presence, but is in fact its intended telos. God thus manifests His uncreated glory in time and space and in multitudes of created forms: upon this hangs the reality of the Gospel and the reality of the Incarnation as a deification of Christ’s humanity, and by extension, us who participate in His deified flesh. Anything else is Arian heresy. Like His humanity or the sacraments, created forms really and truly thus become vehicles of uncreated reality and not ‘created grace.’ The light of Mt.

This is the first half of a full talk which can be obtained by subscribing to JaysAnalysis at the PayPal links for 4.95 a month or 60.00 per year.

We cover the seminal terms and concepts and how they relate to forming a proper worldview and critical thinking, and how the modern world has robbed us of this inheritance.
