Immersion

Part of the prompt is from the current Pope's encyclical, "MAGNIFICA HUMANITAS", paragraph 112 (I think?). Anyway, I'm Protestant but finding good food for thought now that I'm getting around to reading it.

"More gravely, the pervasive technocratic paradigm in which we are immersed, and that is amplified by the digital revolution and AI, threatens to normalize an anti-human vision. In that vision, the fullness of life is equated with having more, reducing weakness, eliminating uncertainty and exerting total control. When efficiency becomes the ultimate measure of value, human beings are tempted to see themselves as a project to be optimized rather than as persons called to relationship and communion."
