In hubris we created, in sin we empowered, and in blindness we set the monster loose. Government-corporate information oligarchy deformed and rendered us hideous, a freakish "people unable... even to search for the truth because (we) are satisfied with deception..."

We have corrupted ourselves.
Corruptio optimi pessima!
Only God can save us, now.
