Daniel Taylor, independent activist, researcher and webmaster of oldthinkernews.com, is proud to release his new book The Age of Disconnection – We are more wired than ever. But are we truly connected?
From cell phones to Google Glass, and eventually brain chips, technology is increasingly playing a major role in our lives. Previously unheard of disorders are appearing parallel to these trends. “Digital dementia” is beginning to plague young people across the developed world. A “new social awkwardness” is gripping their lives. Recent films like “Don Jon” and “Her” are beginning to inject some of the issues raised in The Age of Disconnection into popular culture.
The Age of Disconnection explores these new social phenomena associated with our addiction to technology.
Also available in E-Book format
The technological elite plan to make these individuals – who they see as a generation of “easily deceived barbarians” that are unfit for the future – and the rest of the human race, obsolete. Human connection is fading in the technological era while the age of robotics rapidly approaches.
In The Age of Disconnection, you will learn the secrets to staying truly connected in a wired world.
Excerpt from The Age of Disconnection:
“As a society we are increasingly finding ourselves in a passive observer mode. We watch what our friends are doing on our facebook feed, which, to our dismay, often makes us feel inadequate in comparison. We watch eagerly for the next viral video. We model ourselves after scripted characters on television instead of creating ourselves. What are you adding to the world? Turn the TV off for a while and re-discover the world around you. Let your thoughts (about yourself, others, and the world) be your own, not suggested by someone else. Own your consciousness.
What would happen if the internet and all of the devices that rely on it to function were to be shut off for a week? Outside of the economic impact, what would people feel like? Would we go into withdrawal like a hardcore cocaine addict? Do we still know what to do with our free time without it?
Technology (and how we use it) reveals the deeper things of the human soul.”
The Age of Disconnection will be made available on Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, and in E-book form. It is now available for purchase on Lulu.com.

fit the trip for a hop into the unknown turn of the path ; awakening themselves by dreaming - sending the notes of songs held dear in the heart upward and beyond the beyond - to the jagged edge of the rim of the earth ; the edge of the mind , the edge of time — those who see know they are part dream and part fire - decrypt this - Psalm 139: 15
Here’s what I see happening. People who rely on the electronic computerized technologies of modern society are being exploited. A well known futurist and Luciferian calls this “tapping the genius of the beast”. The “beast” is the carnal spirit that resides in man. It is the spirit that manipulates and controls the “flesh”, all the desires and passions of man. As you look and listen to what is available via electronic media what do you see and hear? I see and hear a “beast” rising out of the “sea”, the collective imaginations of carnal humanity. “It” sells “its” products and services by exploiting human nature! What do you want or desire? On the WWW anything and everything your carnal spirit wants or desires is available, is it not? All the desires of the “flesh” are there, and you don’t even have to go anywhere to purchase them! And people wonder why this nation and world are falling apart? I don’t wonder why, I know why!

You can even escape into a virtual world, one in which you can satisfy all your carnal desires and passions!
