I think many Christians are antichrists. I think one can profess to be Christian but actually desire personal human power. I think Thiel wants us to dream rather than to stay stagnant, but his flirting with immortality is deeply utopian, as is the final paragraph of his piece.

I think you misunderstand some of his stances. Are you a Christian? What do you mean by Human Power? That Christians should never run for public office or be involved in technology? Are you Calvinist? Catholic? Eastern Orthodox? Thiels perspective comes from an apocalyptic one

I think any Christian interested in physical immortality, running a data company called Palantir that gives information to the police and FBI, proclaiming human power over fate, is trying to make human beings into Gods and fundamentally embodies the opposite of Christian thinking

Wow you managed to both strawman Peter Thiel in that comment and fail to understand Christianity. These things frustrate you because you probably haven’t actually read the Bible you just believe in a Christianese handed to you from someone. Actually listen to what Thiel says.

I read the article and he says exactly what I am saying he says. You're wrong on this and you probably are operating on a mythical understanding of Thiel rather than his actual business ventures enacted in the world

I think your just emotionally responding to what you don’t understand and projecting your hated secular atheist faustianism onto Thiel and making him a scapegoat. Your horribly ignorant here. Thiel is Girardian.

"Thiel is Girardian! Thiel is Lindy! Thiel is this and that, everything but what he is in practice!"

You're an obnixious cultist, you're just going to call in a member of your hive mind and insult my reading of Christianity. The way you conduct discussion is inane and you refuse to consider that Thiel actually does believe in immortality and utopia despite your hand-waving.
