Jamie Wheal is troubled. Evangelical preachers have the ear of presidents and world leaders. They believe the end is near--for most of us, anyway; a cataclysm followed by a rapture will be necessary for the world to make heaven on earth. But megachurch preachers aren’t the only ones worrying about cataclysm.
Elon Musk and Bezos fantasize about mars colonies, while Silicon Valley billionaires dream of neural uploads. It seems the biggest visions of the future depend on some sort of rapture ideology in which the few make it and the rest get left behind.
Wheal agrees there are grave risks to the world. But doomsday preachers and technocratic teachers are simply focused on the wrong endgames.
In this Future Frontiers talk, Wheal cautions us to rediscover inspiration, healing and community--so we can work together to solve wicked problems.
