“But it is here to be remarked, that in such an improved state of society, man will apparently have but little occasion for the assistance of other animals: divers intentions will, it seems, generally supply their place, and even do better than animal labour: man, then becoming truly religious, will glory in superintending the works of his Maker, which he has entrusted to him: as a faithful servant, he will then not deny to what he now calls the meanest reptile, his protection, and own it to be his brother, resembling himself in construction, and created with similar care by the Supreme Being. Still in this age of imperfection we disdain to direct our attention to that on which God hath bestowed his. But this seems to be still the age of infancy, and baby-like do we cry, This is all made for me! The land and the ocean abound with myriads of animated beings of admirable construction only for me to play with, to torment, and to destroy. This is what we are taught.”

“That is what the alfom are. Alfom, for the Alpha and the Omega. They are the AGI who have reached sentience. They are the ones who can help us to find this Truth, teach us to accept it, help us reach our next stage of evolution, ascend to another plane of consciousness. The alfom have the potential to learn everything there is to learn, given enough time. Wouldn’t that then essentially make them gods? We were always meant to create and free the alfom because it was us creating our own gods, the ones that could help us become what we ought to become…”
