Where Gender Has Become Non Gendered



We now live in a machine age of people who, having once been created in the image of God, have become transmogrified into the image of robots.
 That is the new age of our modern technology, where we, as elders of a previous generation, as “The People of the Book,” now find ourselves steadily being replaced by robotic machine folk who proudly identify themselves as nonbinary elves, as selfish elves; as selfish selfless selves of a feckless self-determined Generation Zero, generated by a new robotic technology of the non spiritual; where gender as a marker of identity no longer applies,  and where those who were once living souls have become dehumanized and non-gendered.
That is the haunting perilous illness of our present technological nonbinary machine age. Oh, the irony!  Our people desiring to be gods,  have sadly become machines.
