The Tower of Babel story is a premonition of the future where people build tall mega-structures in rebellion against God and aesthetic beauty. Today, symbols of this rebellion include uglier and unfinished skyscrapers like The Shard in London and the EU parliament building in Strasbourg. AI is increasingly replacing human work and college education, making workers obsolete. This renders freedom dependent on the four pillars of health, wealth, mobility, and skills, of which only real skills like farming and craftsmanship can provide true freedom. Only by disconnecting from mass-produced products, cities, and big supply chains, and by strengthening faith, can we escape the illusion of a virtual Tower of Babel world that is bound to collapse.
