About this listen

Only man bears His Image. History's Original Tragedy—The First Deception—began with Eve's neglect of this truth. By her willingness to engage in dialogue with a "Nonhuman Intelligence" (a fallen angel feigning benevolence and assuming the disguise of an incarnate rational creature), the Fall of Man was precipitated. Today, the Last Deception is arising in the same manner.

The Devil now seeks to deceive mankind not in the form of a speaking serpent, but rather by employing today's prevailing myth—science fiction—and he is empowered by increasingly sensational but patently false claims masquerading as nonfictional. These contemporary lies—regarding aliens, UFOs, and superintelligent AI—provide still more alluring disguises for him to yet again beguile the human race into entering into dialogue with him, even while failing to discern the cloven hoof. Thus, the Biblically foretold "Strong Delusion" (2 Thessalonians 2) is heralded as men "wander into myths" (2 Timothy 4) and heed "demonic instructions." (2 Timothy 4)

But this book will equip you to resist it: to reject The Last Deception

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. DO'C has a great voice to listen to.
I have often thought that 'something out there's might have something to do with the end times. I must admit it caused some concern. Also with the AI situation. He speaks in a calm and authorative manner.

To hear Daniel explaining everything in a clear way, well researched and evidenced, has calmed my concerns.
The fact that he is a devout Catholic has made him my 'go to' source for information.
Well done Daniel and keep up the good work.
God bless you in your wirk

clear and well researched

If you are a person of faith and have questions about AI and aliens, read this book then read it again.

Fascinating and worth reading and rereading

Funny that this book gives good reasons that alien belief and AI hype are all bunk. But then it tells us demons are real and that science fiction is a demonic deception, ecpecially Spielberg movies. I hate to sound like a reddit atheist, byt maybe it's all just made up and scifi is just cool escapism? The auhor does have a lovely voice.

And why do Catholic fundies hate the Elightenment so much?

Aliens are fiction. Agreed. But demons are real...?!
