In this Journal, SCP explores the spiritual implications of the unprecedented
technological development of Cyberspace. Topics covered include the neo-pagan
and neo-gnostic influences in the hi-tech world, the threat of human imagination
unleashed from the cause-and-effect reality of real life--manifested in
such things as the explosion of cyberporn, the radical quest for virtual
"freedom" pursued by the extropians, the influence of writerWilliam
Gibson and his sci-fi novel Neuromancer, roboticist Hans Moravec
and the ultimate VR dream -- downloading the human intelligence into the
virtual realm, and the downside to the illusory promise of unlimited human
potential in the cyber-plane.
