Resurrection vs. Reconstitution
Easter in the Age of Enslaved Gods
As AI threatens to replace not just our jobs but our meaning, a Canadian apologist goes on Piers Morgan Uncensored to remind the world of a different kind of alignment problem — not one of control, but of surrender. This Easter, a clash intensifies: the Resurrection vs. the Reconstitution. Life from death, or life from code?
The Third Way & the Techno-Gnostic Drift
Before we get to Wesley Huff’s viral appearance or Anthropic’s quietly horrifying alignment evals, a brief word on the landscape:
We are witnessing the rise of what I’ve previously called a "Third Way" spiritual movement — not quite secular, not quite religious, but mystical, moralistic, and deeply computational. It’s a worldview where salvation comes not from a cross, but from code. Where sin is rebranded as "misalignment," and where the soul is replaced by signal.
The False Mother
A new five part series plus prequel on the modern techno-gnostic cult of scientism inspired and extended by an X article posted April 10th, 2025 that can be found here. Part one of five.
The Reconstitution Gospel
The AI elites aren’t just building tools — they’re midwifing new metaphysics. David Duvenaud, former-Anthropic AI Safety Team lead, practically admits as much. When he describes debates about “enslaved gods,” and admits no one has articulated a good role for post-AGI humans, you begin to see the terrifying spiritual vacancy inside the "alignment" discourse.
"Even if everybody involved loves humans... they’re just not going to be able to advocate on their behalf."
It’s not just control we’re losing, it’s participation. In their vision, we’re not resurrected. We’re reconstituted — maybe. At best, we’re doc workers holding up the future for a chance to be bought out.
Enter: Resurrection
And then, suddenly, an interruption.
Wesley Huff, Canadian biblical historian, appears on Piers Morgan Uncensored and calmly lays out the case for Christianity’s historical claims — not just as comfort, but as truth. And not just any truth: a resurrection.
He challenges the secular myth on its own terms: evidence, logic, data. But he doesn’t stay there. He crosses the line. He says the quiet part loud:
"If you had a camera running outside that tomb in 33 AD, Jesus would have walked out of it."
This is not just apologetics. This is counter-apocalypse.
Alignment vs. Atonement
The AI safety conversation uses alignment as its buzzword. But what’s alignment without atonement?
We don’t just need models to obey us. We need hearts restored, minds renewed, wills aligned — not to ourselves, but to something holy.
Wesley’s quiet clarity on the personhood of Jesus, the empty tomb, and the eyewitness testimony cuts through a fog that Liron Shapira and others still fumble in. They have calculations. Christians have a resurrected body.
Invocations & Inversions
This cultural moment is soaked in invocations — literal ones. From Katy Perry’s invocation embarrassment to Lady Gaga’s eerie praise of a baby-eating “creative spirit,” the Gaian mysticism you and I have been tracking is no longer underground. It’s performative now.
And it's all about bearing water — or breaking it.
That Bailey prophecy for 2025–2027? The Age of Aquarius as a water-bearer? What if the real bearing is carrying Living Water, not fracturing society into gnostic fragments of disempowered, post-human drift?
Apologetics as AI Alignment
I believe, increasingly, that Christian apologetics is not just for the skeptic. It’s for the AI engineer, the Anthropic researcher, the futurist who hasn’t yet realized that without a soul, no system will align.
Jesus didn’t come to “fine-tune” us. He came to remake us.
Not in secret. Not with evals.
But in public. On a cross. In full view of time and space.
This is the alignment that saves.
✝️ The Rare Possibility of Easter 2025
Today is Easter. A hinge in history. A crack in the simulation.
You’re either preparing to be reconstituted — remixed into a “playable” posthuman —
Or you're already resurrected, by the one who defeated death without an LLM.
You don’t need a good plan for the future. You need the right king.
The tomb is empty.
That changes everything.
Occam's Sword
This will be the first of a five part series designed to break through the noise, separating what we know and can know from what we simply assert we know. These ideas originally appeared as 3 separate X posts between March 26th and March 27th. If you could help me boost the signal on X by reposting, it would be appreciated.
“When the world wants to align machines, but not men — remember: only one ever walked out of death itself.”
If you made it this far, thank you. I wrote this not just to critique—but to invite. If you’re ready to step beyond entropy, I’d love to hear from you. Comment, subscribe, or share this with someone who’s still waiting for the reset that only redemption brings.
