I see churches with auditoriums the size of football stadiums, high-tech sound and video systems, their own band and orchestra . . . and starving children. The vast majority of churches do not come even close to using 10% of their earnings to help the needy, yet they pay no taxes. The taxes collected from USA churches alone could save the starving children worldwide. No wonder people want to put blinkers on and just watch Netflix or submerse themselves in VR.
But few days ago; I got my hands on a VR headset. The technology was quite off my radar, I just didn't think the Software & Engineering community was capable to develop virtual reality, under such a low price.
A headset from Google can cost you 10$ only. It's cheap.
I downloaded a free app, and I put on the headset. I was blown away. Literally.
All the sci-fi movies I ever remembered just crossed my head.
Oh my God. Humanity did climb utter heights if you ask me. While people die from hunger, others just bury their eyes in a plastic box and claim the didn't hear nobody screaming.
The whole concept of the technology is illusion. The image is a 2D flat image. People dying from hunger is 4D and real.
Humanity did cross the line. We could've end hunger. We could've end poverty. We could've end lots and lots of sicknesses.
But instead; we chose a fare similar to the M.A.T.R.I.X
Why I posted this here is pretty simple: what do you think as a religious person, an atheist?
I do believe in God even more, because when I see the coldness humans reached, I just remember why hell is justified, why earth is literally being butchered by many humans.
