Dallas, TX (1888PressRelease)
January 09, 2008 - 2008 ushers in a new year of interest surrounding the future of technology with a new book that takes a very close look at how our modern-day tech revolution is fulfilling ancient biblical prophecies. In Your World, Your Future, & Bible Prophecy: How the Merging of Technology, Spirituality, & Bible Prophecy Will Rock Your World (Infinity Publishing), tech industry insider and biblical futurist Daniel J. Gansle presents a close look at the question everybody is asking: Where is technology leading us? What kind of world are we creating for ourselves, and how do the ancient prophecies of the Bible fit into it?
This new interactive media book is different from other books in its genre because of its unique focus on future tech trends vis-à-vis centuries-old predictions of the Bible. It is highly researched and provocative. Furthermore, it contains numerous multimedia application sidenotes that direct the reader to websites where they can view science and technology multimedia content on the Internet. "Tech Tips" are helpful as well.
How did the tech revolution start, and did it really begin in our day? Where is it taking us, and how will it ultimately impact our lives? Will we one day enter into a global utopia where war is abandoned in favor of international cooperation among a grouping of ten transnational cooperative regional trading blocs, including a prosperous Middle East Union? Will famine and disease be obliterated?
What about the future of RFID/GPS, transportation, robotics, the Internet, brain-to-machine/brain-to-brain communication, nanotechnology, holography, personal security, artificial intelligence, cybernetics, and direct brain stimulation via ultrasound? How will global warming and the coming energy crisis impact our lives? And where do ancient biblical prophecies play into this mad dash we call the tech revolution?
Along with these and many other key discussions on future technologies, Your World, Your Future, & Bible Prophecy contains numerous interactive media sidenotes that direct the reader to various websites where they can view Internet-based multimedia content. Learn about global warming, robotics, RFID, virtual worlds, nanotechnology, artificial intelligence, and more. View helpful Tech Tips. Discover what is going on in our world today from a technological perspective and where it is leading us in relation to ancient prophetic texts.
EXCERPT:
Today, we know that machines have indeed taken over many jobs once performed by humans. Factory work, receptionists, electronics manufacturing – all largely automated. Robotics and artificial intelligence are two established fields that are growing by leaps and bounds. And now, scientists are forecasting a day when robots will become self-aware and will surpass even the intelligence of human beings.
Will we one day be forced to "upgrade" ourselves cybernetically in order to compete with the very intelligent machines we created? Will they rule over us as we saw in futuristic films such as The Matrix, or will we heed the clear warnings and curtail research and development in such areas? As Jeff Goldblum’s character (Dr. Ian Malcolm) poignantly opines in the 1993 sci-fi thriller, Jurassic Park, "Yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should."
