MINDBLOWING WTH!!!
The shrikes from the future, yes. But, it's a tool of some deus ex machina that emerge from humanity to destroy humanity so they can prevent the birth of another deity?!
The Ultimate Intelligence, a God. One part consist of intelligent, that is Ummon (perhaps?), one part consist of empathy (maybe M. Severn?), and one part consist of the void. WTF is it gonna follow the expiation of original sin?

So Weinstraub's answer for Abraham's dilemma was to heard his daughter, and not the voice itself. Interesting, cause it doesn't fully fall on leap of faith, like Kierkegaard's assume. And surprisingly more align with Ishmael's answer in Qur'anic text, instead of biblical.
"In the end—when all else is dust—loyalty to those we love is all we can carry with us to the grave. Faith—true faith—was trusting in that love."
