The Dawn of the Molecular Age?
Posted by brittgillette on April 18th, 2008

For the past year, I’ve posted a number of articles on the future development of molecular manufacturing (MM) and its relation to bible prophecy. In the time since those articles were first written, researchers have achieved some major milestones in the development of this powerful technology. So I thought I would provide an update for those who are interested:

Nanotechnology Milestone #1: (Protein Design)

Chemists from UCLA and the University of Washington recently collaborated in the creation of “designer enzymes,” an achievement with major implications. The project makes it feasible for the human race to create customized enzymes that don’t normally occur in nature for the express purpose of enabling chemical reactions. This is a major stepping stone in the goal of human computational control of chemical reactions and eventual human control over all matter itself.

Nanotechnology Milestone #2: (“Nano-Brain”)

Essentially a molecular switch, scientists in Japan have created a molecular device which can be used to send messages to other molecular devices. This “chemical brain” is actually a single molecule surrounded by 16 additional molecules. Using a scanning tunneling microscope, researchers can change the chemical state of the central molecule, which then effects the chemical state of all the surrounding molecules. The result is a configuration that “allows four billion different possible combinations of outcome”. In due time, such a breakthrough will serve as an important bridge between human desire and the ultimate manipulation of matter.

Nanotechnology Milestone #3: Atomically Precise Manufacturing (APM)

A $15 million research project at The University of Texas – Dallas aims to design a manufacturing process that takes place at the molecular level. Once achieved, this process will allow researchers to manufacture products with absolute atomic precision – meaning every single atom will be in its proper position. Molecular manufacturing includes this ability, along with other notable characteristics, such as the ability to self-replicate, so by itself this breakthrough will not result in molecular manufacturing. However, it will lead to a dramatic increase in the power and potency of certain products manufactured using this process, and it represents a major stepping stone in the race to achieve molecular manufacturing.

This last story calls for closer examination. The real news story is not the ambitious goal of atomically precise manufacturing (APM), but rather the details of the undertaking itself. A university is expected to achieve this milestone for the relatively low cost of $15 million? If this turns out to be true, then the development of molecular manufacturing could be much closer than people believe.

Think about it.

As major milestones on the road to molecular manufacturing begin to fall within the boundaries of universities and corporations, requiring only millions instead of billions of dollars to achieve, then those same milestones are easily within reach of governments all across the globe who have tens of billions of dollars to devote to covert molecular manufacturing programs. Given the profound advantages to developing MM first, coupled with the profound negative consequences of not developing it first, it seems more than likely that multiple governments have sufficiently advanced covert molecular manufacturing programs currently underway. If corporations and university researchers can make such rapid progress with limited resources, what could a well-funded government military project achieve?

The answer will change the geopolitical realities of our time by crowning the winner of this new arms race undisputed ruler of the world.

Which leads us to an update on another question often tackled on this site…

Who will develop molecular manufacturing first?

This was the subject of a recent commentary by Mike Treder for Nanotechnology Now.

Read the full article: “Who will win the nano race?”

This is an interesting commentary, and I highly recommend reading it in its entirety. The article sets out to predict who will win the global race to create an MM capability and it attempts to draw some conclusions based on two variables:

1) Publication of peer reviewed papers on the subject of nanotechnology

2) Public and private funding of nanotechnology

While neither of these variables is sufficient to predict the winner of the race to molecular manufacturing, they do provide great insight into the amount of interest and focus on the subject by the respective scientific communities of the nations involved. Treder’s commentary leans toward the conclusion that the United States maintains a decent lead in both areas. However, further examination of the data reveals a different story.

In my opinion, funding is a less reliable indicator of commitment due to the fact that a covert government project is not counted in the final figures. Therefore, we can’t really analyze accurate figures of each nation’s final expenditures in regard to nanotechnology. However, peer reviewed papers offer a more reliable indicator because they illustrate the true depth and breadth of knowledge retained by a local research community concerning a particular area of scientific study.

At first glance, this chart appears to show a decisive advantage for the United States with the following figures* representing the total number of scientific publications originating in each country:

United States 18,200
Japan 8,000
China 7,200
Germany 7,000
United Kingdom 4,200
France 4,000
Italy 3,000
South Korea 2,000
Canada 1,800
Spain 1,700
Russia 1,600

*(all figures are approximate numbers)

However, the chart should actually indicate the following:

European Union 19,900
United States 18,200
Japan 8,000
China 7,200
South Korea 2,000
Canada 1,800
Russia 1,600

When the core nations of the European Union are treated as a single nation (which they should be in this instance given the cooperative nature of the Western European Union in the development of military armaments), it becomes clear that the United States is not the world leader in nanotechnology expertise – the European Union is.

If this is true, then the European Union is on its way to becoming the world’s ruling power, a development that isn’t surprising to those familiar with bible prophecy. Afterall, the bible is clear that the final gentile world empire will be a revived version of the Roman Empire.

What Does All This Mean?

For those who missed previous articles on the subject of molecular manufacturing and its relation to bible prophecy, below is a list of past articles featured on BrittGillette.Com:

Revelation 6 (Part 1): The Rider on the White Horse
Revelation 6 (Part 2): The Rider on the Red Horse
Revelation 6 (Part 3): The Rider on the Black Horse
Revelation 6 (Part 4): The Rider on the Pale Green Horse
Paving the Way for the Antichrist
Who Will Develop Molecular Manufacturing?
Material Abundance In The End Times
Why Global Government Is Inevitable
Deception In The End Times
The Necessity of Global Government Confirmed

These articles shed light on the general direction in which this world is headed. Although the bible does not explicitly mention molecular manufacturing, it does provide a description of the state of human affairs in the last days. Much of what the bible describes parallels human predictions for the era of molecular manufacturing.

Does this mean molecular manufacturing is the tool with which the Antichrist will conquer the world? Not necessarily.

But what we do know is that an alternative method for the establishment of the Antichrist’s diabolical kingdom has only a short window of time to materialize before the maturation of molecular manufacturing. Since the development of molecular manufacturing will inevitably lead to the establishment of a global regime, and the bible states that a truly global government will not exist until the appearance of the Antichrist, then one can logically conclude that if the Antichrist does not appear before the development of molecular manufacturing, he must appear in tandem with it.

The aforementioned breakthroughs in the race to develop this powerful technology illustrate just how close the world is to the seven year Tribulation and the subsequent Glorious Appearing of Jesus Christ. This means the timing of the rapture is even closer. In fact, the rapture is immiment, even more imminent than it ever has been if that makes sense. All one has to do is examine the signs of our times, which the bible says are unmistakable signs of the last days:

1) The Jews are Gathered in the Land of Israel
2) Russia is Forming an Unprecedented Alliance with Muslim Nations
3) The Emerging World Power is the European Union
4) The Various Signs about which Jesus Spoke are now Present

Not all the signs of our times are mentioned here, but they are plentiful, and the development of molecular manufacturing is just one more bullet point to add to this list, since it has to occur in tandem with the Antichrist if this son of perdition has not already appeared by the time of its maturation.

Regardless, the signs are clears, our generation will witness the end of this age.

Jesus Christ is standing right at the door, knocking for anyone willing to listen. Soon, He will announce His presence to the world through means of the rapture, and soon thereafter He will establish His everlasting Kingdom where righteousness and justice will prevail forever and ever.

Will you be worthy of entering His Kingdom? If you’re not sure, read “How Do I Get To Heaven?” Rest assured that Christ has prepared a place for you in His Kingdom. All you have to do is claim it.

We do not have to be God but only ordinary humble people to realise that, as with the Tower of Babel, intervention is not only necessary but inevitable and imminent if God's creation is to be preserved. Mankind is once more building to reach the heavens.

I think I am ready. I hope so. And if I am not then I will suffer for what I deserve.

Praise God.

Unleashing the Bugs of War By MARK THOMPSON/WASHINGTON
Sat Apr 19, 6:20 AM ET



The Defense Advanced Research Project Agency, that secretive band of Pentagon geeks that searches obsessively for the next big thing in the technology of warfare, is 50 years old. To celebrate, DARPA invited Vice President Dick Cheney, a former Defense Secretary well aware of the Agency's capabilities, to help blow out the candles. "This agency brought forth the Saturn 5 rocket, surveillance satellites, the Internet, stealth technology, guided munitions, unmanned aerial vehicles, night vision and the body armor that's in use today," Cheney told 1,700 DARPA workers and friends who gathered at a Washington hotel to mark the occasion. "Thank heaven for DARPA."

Created in the panicky wake of the Soviets' launching of Sputnik, the world's first satellite, DARPA's mission, Cheney said, is "to make sure that America is never again caught off guard." So, the Agency does the basic research that may be decades away from battlefield applications. It doesn't develop new weapons, as much as it pioneers the technologies that will make tomorrow's weapons better.


So what's hot at DARPA right now? Bugs. The creepy, crawly flying kind. The Agency's Microsystems Technology Office is hard at work on HI-MEMS (Hybrid Insect Micro-Electro-Mechanical System), raising real insects filled with electronic circuitry, which could be guided using GPS technology to specific targets via electrical impulses sent to their muscles. These half-bug, half-chip creations - DARPA calls them "insect cyborgs" - would be ideal for surveillance missions, the agency says in a brief description on its website.


Scientist Amit Lal and his team insert mechanical components into baby bugs during "the caterpillar and the pupae stages," which would then allow the adult bugs to be deployed to do the Pentagon's bidding. "The HI-MEMS program is aimed at developing tightly coupled machine-insect interfaces by placing micro-mechanical systems inside the insects during the early stages of metamorphosis," DARPA says. "Since a majority of the tissue development in insects occurs in the later stages of metamorphosis, the renewed tissue growth around the MEMS will tend to heal, and form a reliable and stable tissue-machine interface." Such bugs "could carry one or more sensors, such as a microphone or a gas sensor, to relay back information gathered from the target destination."


DARPA declined TIME's request to interview Dr. Lal about his program and the progress he is making in producing the bugs. The agency added that there is no timetable for turning backyard pests into battlefield assets. But in a written statement, spokeswoman Jan Walker said that "living, adult-stage insects have emerged with the embedded systems intact." Presumably, enemy arsenals will soon be well-stocked with Raid. View this article on Time.com
