AI skepticism versus AI optimism is not on a left-right continuum. I am more optimistic, but I am listening to those who are more skeptical because I think there are real ethical concerns. Innovation and technology are aspects of subduing the earth and fulfilling the creation mandate. Yet, we live in a fallen world and we cannot just blindly accept every innovation. There are assumptions built into our new technologies. What gives me hope--as opposed to the more pessimistic apocalyptic outlooks--is that humans have agency. We get to determine how AI will be incorporated into our future. Ironically, the presence of human pushback and resistance, and skepticism is one data point that tells me that the robots will never take over.

A, for pristine white sand and beautiful water. Also driving distance to spend time indoors talking sports with @deaninserra

You just won a 2-week, all-expenses-paid vacation to Florida. But there’s a catch: you have to stay within one region the whole time. What are you picking?

Critics show up to tell you what is broken. Builders show up to create something beautiful and lasting. In an age of critics, be a builder.

Excellent defense of religious liberty. Grateful for @ADFLegal and @firstliberty_ and so many others who defend it.

I didn’t become convinced against Christian nationalism by reading another book. I became convinced after my own church faced discrimination when we were denied permission to build. Here’s why that experience clarified how I think about the government's authority in matters of religion. thegospelcoalition.org/artic…

Why I’m Not a Christian Nationalist

The American government needs a moral people, but that doesn’t mean it should be entrusted to guard the beliefs that make a people moral.

Here is @firstliberty_ explanation of the case: firstliberty.org/cases/the-s…

Federal law has long barred the discriminatory use of zoning laws to keep churches out while showing special treatment to non-religious organizations.

Another swing-district Dem references trans participation in sports in an ad. Lindsay James in IA-02: "We need to protect kids, and we need common sense rules to keep sports fair for boys and for girls. Parents know what's best for our kids. Washington needs to stay out of it."

Wow. This is awesome

When I started radio, I had to work on Good Friday. I told my station I was going to do a show on Good Friday. They didn’t know what I meant. I did a three hour gospel presentation. The CEO sent word that I was never to do it again. On Monday, people showed up at work and everybody’s voicemail was filled up with demands for copies of the show. Now they make me do a Christmas show too and I’m about to hit 100 stations. Finally enrolled at RTS so I could improve the show. @LigonDuncan this one’s for you.
