Description
Techno-Jesus tele-broadcast doesn\'t seem quite so sincere as an ancient, leather-bound tome. Techno-Jesus cannot enter into households too poor for television; cannot beg donations for evangelical think tanks from the impoverished who have nothing left to give. Why has a messiah who taught peace & quality been hijacked & digitized by megalomaniacs with ringed fingers poised over an array of shiny red buttons? Techno-Jesus with his white hood, rifle crucifix, & stigmata. Heterosexual, masculine, Anglicized Techno-Jesus enforcing heavenly freedom with satellites, tanks, & \"ordinance.\" Technology is not the answer. Typewriters scatter messages that cannot be monitored by Poindexter\'s secret police. Wooden decoys distract predator drones. A hole provides shelter from the ever-present eye in the sky. Some gasoline, styrofoam, & a tampon can create an explosive. Box cutters can redirect an airplane. Where there\'s a will there\'s a way. While the pricy books remain locked in their trendy warehouses, word of mouth spreads an unconquerable idea. An idea of justice that does not require repackaging prophets as warriors. An idea that does not require bloody sacrifices or martyrdom.Related content
