I reviewed the reporting on that - the West Point commencement was reported as ‘scattered’ applause from families for his demented ramblings, and normal applause for references to Schwarzkopf and Patton.
I couldn’t find itbut there was some report about the graduates being chosen for “looks” somewhere. Which fits, of course.
The event is sponsored by a non-profit that promotes “Christ in science and technology” or something.
Who We Are
We’re a community of thinkers, builders, artists, and leaders who are wrestling with what it means to live with purpose and conviction.
We’re here to explore deeper questions, together.
And yes, we talk about Jesus.
Not in a pushy way.
Not with religious jargon.
But with honesty, clarity, and respect.
Because we believe Jesus is so much more than a religious figure. He's the answer to the longings we often try to fill with ambition, success, or self-discovery.
Just when you thought it couldn’t get any weirder, Peter Thiel has announced plans to deliver a four-part lecture series on the Antichrist. These unusual events will take place at the Commonwealth Club of San Francisco on four days in September and October.
Thiel, one of the most influential tech billionaires of our time, seems intent on forcing us to discuss the Antichrist. He is clearly trying to make a point.
But, what is that point?
Thiel’s lecture series won’t provide any clues to the public—it’s off the record. He’ll be delivering his lectures to an exclusive group of Antichrist-curious tech acolytes in a highly-controlled atmosphere.
I’m sure those rates are way better now. Because of all the beautiful winning.
