Hey Brock, I’m getting increasingly concerned about our loss of basic, constitutionally guaranteed freedoms here in Canada. I keep thinking that the Germans in the 1930s didn’t believe it was possible and Canadians today are no different. I’ve always thought survivalists were wacko, but now I’m beginning to think we need to be ready to live without reliance on digital systems and electricity and grocery stores. Maybe the Amish have it right! But is it even possible to disentangle from the system now?

Hey Jared

Appreciate your thoughtful and provocative articles. I have been reading Homo Deus recently and I’m actually quite overwhelmed by the ethical decisions coming down the pipe. How do we deal with the ability to alter genes and not just eliminate hereditary diseases but perhaps create smarter, more athletic, better looking kids? How do we handle if rich can but poor can’t? Or if regimes like n Korea do it but western countries don’t? Is “natural selection” biblical? Is this a secular attempt to retake the Garden of Eden without God? Are we as Christians for health & human betterment and find ourselves joining in the fight to reverse the effects of the Fall? These are issues that will hit pastors offices in the not too distant future. Wisdom, please?
