Note: The name of Venter's boat was most likely inspired by a Sirian.

American scientists in La Jolla, California have used a computer to create humanity's first synthetic cell.

The newspaper coverage of this event will help readers understand the direction human scientists are headed.

Life that is created by a computer is not connected to God.

Newspaper Articles: The First Synthetic Cell
It is interesting to compare newspaper articles published in San Diego and London:

• The San Diego Union-Tribune: "First synthetic cell created by scientists"
  

  The most alarming statement Venter makes is at the very end of the article:

  Software-dependent species (like the synthetic cell) also are constantly performing cell functions, but we were surprised by how quickly they evolved.

• The Times, [of London]: "Scientists create artificial life in laboratory"

  The most alarming statement in this article is a remark made by Julian Savulescu, Professor of Practical Ethics at the University of Oxford, who said:

  Venter is creaking open the most profound door in humanity's history, potentially peeking into its destiny. He is going towards the role of a god: creating artificial life that could never have existed naturally.

In the video interview, Craig Venter compares DNA fragments to Legos and says that synthesis of artificial life is safe from terrorists because "it's a sophisticated technology that won't be replicable in the near future in a high school science lab" [Note from Mary Jo: Venter's view of the implications for the future is an example of why God's help is needed. The San Diego Union-Tribune article says Venter has a "deep financial interest in synthetic biology"].

The Sirians Created Artificial Life a Long Time Ago
Human scientists are just beginning to create synthetic life and the direction they're taking is most likely heavily influenced by Sirians.

By now, the Sirian race is composed of a very high percentage of synthetic cells and through advanced technology, it is possible that they can replicate human-like synthetic beings with advanced powers very quickly.

Set in 2035 Chicago, the film's plot presents a world in which robots are commonly seen and used as servants. Del Spooner (Smith) is a Chicago police detective who is asked to investigate the death of Alfred Lanning (Cromwell), a robotics scientist and founder of U.S. Robotics (USR), who fell out of his window.

Your Help is Needed
The numbers of attackers are still high. I believe that the remaining invaders are 100% synthetic and that they are being replicated quickly in response to Prayers that ask God to remove them.

If you have time to say every Prayer at Sun Rise and Sun Down, use the buttons on the left edge of this site to access and print the alternate versions of the Prayers as described on this site's Home page.

If you have limited time, use the following links to access and print the alternate versions of just the Blow Back Prayer that asks God to deal with bots [my nickname for robots]:

• Blow Back Prayer
• Alternate Blow Back Prayer

Use the directions on the Home page for saying the Blow Back Prayer. Recite one of the versions for six Sun Events and then switch to the alternate version [use this method for all the Prayers if you have time to say the full set].

Effect of Additional Prayer Reciters
A few very determined Prayer Reciters can accomplish a great deal. I've learned that God responds to very specific Prayer requests.

Thank you to everyone who is helping!
