From Galileo To AI: Why Truth Outlasts Trends

Send us a text

What if the biggest shifts in culture are less about truth and more about timing, power, and convenience? We trace a straight line from Isaiah’s vision of the “circle of the earth” to Galileo’s house arrest and into today’s clash between climate dogma and AI’s insatiable appetite for electricity. Along the way, we ask a sharper question: when reality pushes back—through physics, economics, or simple consistency—who has the courage to adjust, and who clings to a narrative that no longer adds up?

We share why trust fractures when public advocates of climate policy live as if coastlines are safe and private jets are fine, while families struggle with soaring energy bills. Then AI enters the scene and rewrites the script. Leaders now concede that wind and solar alone cannot sustain the compute revolution; the math points to gigawatt-scale solutions like nuclear and reliable baseload generation. It’s a revealing moment where slogans meet the grid and rhetoric meets the meter.

Through it all, we ground the conversation in a promise from Genesis 8: as long as the earth remains, the rhythms of seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, day and night endure. That isn’t an excuse for neglect; it’s a framework for sane stewardship. We honor science as a tool to discover what God has already woven into creation, and we challenge hypocrisy that burdens the poor while excusing elites. Finally, we offer a word of courage: forget the weight of yesterday and press toward your high calling in Christ, whose truth does not bend to trends.
