About this listen

For those with eyes to see, it is painfully apparent. Society everywhere teeters over an abyss, on the edge of the most explosive revolutionary and apocalyptic upheaval. We experience the upheaval everyday, in our minds, as we experience our subjection to ever more audacious forms of menticide - the full-spectrum, systematic campaign that seeks to undermine and destroy our individual and collective values and beliefs. The twenty-first century war over our minds has been waged through the use of prolonged methods of techno-interrogation and torture, through an endless array of drugs, propaganda and double think, in a fashion more subtle than Orwell’s 1984, yet more insidious than Huxley’s Brave New World could ever envision, all in an effort to induce radically different sets of ideas into human consciousness.

In Pursuit of the Metaverse is an attempt to unmask the forces of evil that wage war upon us, and indeed that seek to undermine all that is sacred. In order to preserve our sanity, our dignity, and our salvation, we must unmask these forces and begin the dark journey into its age-old totalitarian agenda - we must dare to understand and speak into the ultimate abyss - the Metaverse.

Thus, we must retrace what has been lost. In particular, we must grapple with the construction of reality, understood within the Christian tradition. Only then can we apprehend the paradoxical nature of reality's suspension and the pinpoints of its subversion. Ironically, we find that opposition to the dialectic forces of revolution only serves to further the upheavals of revolution and further deconstruct the critical elements that buttress reality. For this reason, we offer a vantage point, within, yet apart from time and space, a point from which the self can navigate the whirlwinds of our time, and reclaim what is true, good and beautiful.
