Incomplete Gods!

The sins of Judas Iscariot - I can only imagine! Luke 22:1-6 (NASB) Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which is called the Passover, was approaching. And the chief priests and the scribes were trying to find a way to put Him to death, since they were afraid of the people. And Satan entered Judas, the one called Iscariot, who belonged to the number of the twelve. And he left and discussed with the chief priests and officers how he was to betray Him to them. And they were delighted, and agreed to give him money. And so he consented, and began looking for a good opportunit y to betray Him to them away from the crowd. I can only imagine what might have been going through Judas’ mind when he decided to betray Jesus. Luke 9:57-58 (NASB) As they were going on the road, someone said to Him, “I will follow You wherever You go.” And Jesus said to him, “The foxes have holes and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.” I imagine that Judas wou...

Many of us consider the "mind" to be the seat of consciousness and intelligence.  It's almost trivial to define "consciousness" or "intelligence", but how do we define the metaphysical concept of our our own minds? Is my mind or consciousness merely a result of the functions of my physical brain. OR Is my mind or consciousness independent of and even capable of controlling the functions of my physical brain. These are age old questions that countless philosophers have contended with to no avail.  They have led some to even question our very existence.  However, in the mid to late 1940s, when electronic computers were nothing more than a theory, Alan Turing was able to sidestep this seemingly futile debate, and present a more pragmatic question for our consideration, namely:  Could " intelligent machinery " or "artificial intelligence" be like or even rival humans intelligence? Alan Turing went on to develop the famous " Turing ...

Artificial Intelligence Reflects Real Intelligence For ages, we  have been fascinated with the idea of creating machines in our own image.  Robots that look and move like us and Artificially Intelligent (AI) computer software that can "think" like us, have been a dream that for decades our most mathematical and creative thought leaders, scientists, engineers, artists and inventors have been committed to and even obsessed with realizing. Our fascination with creating autonomous machines and AI that can think and make decisions just like us, provides us with insight into the very nature of our own creator! Similar to how we have worked to design and create AI systems that can autonomously develop actionable knowledge by learning from both good and bad data sets, and to ultimately be able to make independent decisions, God also made us in his own image: Sentient: to be able to experience the world. Intelligent: to be able to develop actionable knowledge from our go...
