General's Report: Technology CANNOT Thwart God
I regularly use AI for youtube descriptions. But I'm specifically not doing that here for a reason, and the reason is this: What I have to say in this General's Report is so against the grain of the modern age that I can't get AI to recognize the existence of my perspective. So listen up. God is King and he cannot be thwarted by the crafts of his court wizards and inventors nor the machinations of the enemy. Stop acting like this is the case. If you wish to not partake, don't. If you wish to change things, do it decisively.
