First off, thank you for all the work you have been putting in surrounding this conflict, I've found it invaluable. It is also interesting to see that some also feel that much of this is driven by technology itself, not just geopolitics. There is a Christian thinker, Jonathan Pageau, who posits that the internet is akin to the ancient pagan gods. That it exists through attention (worship) and our participation in it. An amoral, primordial force around which we build society. , the religion of a new age.

I’m here to second any interest in Pageau. If you’re reading replies to this comment and thinking “who that? Should I do the googles?” Yes you should … but also use DuckDuckGo

Good observation. The Imago Dei keeps being pushed aside as we seem Hell-bent on remaking ourselves in our own image. These tendencies are as theological as they are technologically and politically driven.
