Tune in to hear Pastor Wilson talk about disturbing algorithms. Then he plugs Witness, and wraps things up with a talk about the Greek word “Akataschetos”. Happy Plodding!
Show Notes:
Disturbing Algorithms
- they have developed the technology that puts the faces of celebrities onto pornagraphic images in a full time realistic way
- this is the world we are living in
- we ought to get to the point where we no longer admit digital evidence into the court of law
- we now have the capacity where we could generate footage of someone robbing a bank
- evidence can be manufactured
- people who are not technologically sophisticated are at the mercy of people who are
- we need to go back to the standard of having two or three witnesses
- we are getting to the point where digital evidence can be easily abused
Witness
- written by Whitaker Chambers
- he was a communist spy and worked together with Alger Hiss
- Chambers was converted
- he wound up making the accusation against Alger Hiss
- this book is Chamber’s account of his life and conversion
- liberals wanted to maintain that Hiss was framed, but he actually was a spy
Akataschetos
- when something is unruly it is untamed, uncowed, undisciplined
- the NT uses this word for the tongue, which no one can tame
- an unruly evil, full of deadly poison
- we must keep our guard up, we have a cobra in our mouth
- if a man can tame the tongue he can tame anything
