Pope Leo XIV, Scriptures on Narcissism

Pope Leo XIV’s encyclical on artificial intelligence, “Magnifica Humanitas”:

“So-called artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate language, behavior and analytical skills, or even simulate empathy and understanding, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom.”

Chris Olah, a founder of Anthropic:

“(AI is) not the cold, calculating robots we were promised, but beings made from us, from our words, through a process a little like bringing a fictional character to life.

I am a scientist. I lead a research team that studies the internal structure of these models — what is actually happening inside them. And I will be honest: We keep finding things that are mysterious, even unsettling. We find structures that mirror results from human neuroscience. We find evidence of introspection. We find internal states that functionally mirror joy, satisfaction, fear, grief and unease. I don’t know what that means, but I think it warrants ongoing discernment.”

Narcissism in the Bible (2 Timothy 3):

"But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people. 6 They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over gullible women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires, 7 always learning but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth."

WATCH Narcissist’s Missing Kali Mother

The ancient divinity Kali is a good enough mother, not a cruel deity. Narcissists do not have Kali mothers.

Coatlicue in John Irving, Avenue of Mysteries, 277-278:

“Coatlicue was an extremist — a goddess of childbirth and of sexual impurity and wrongful behavior. Several creation myths were connected to her; in one, she was impregnated by a ball of feathers that fell on her while she was sweeping a temple.

Coatlicue wore a skirt of serpents. She was basically dressed in writhing snakes; she wore a necklace of human hearts and hands and skulls. Coatlicue’s hands and feet had claws; her breasts were flaccid. Coatlicue’s nipples were made of rattlesnake rattles.

Some of her own children vowed to kill her. A difficult woman. Coatlicue is a devouring mother; the womb and the grave coexist in her.

She looks deadly; man on wheels, nobody messes with her.

“Coatlicue didn’t ask to be born who she was. She was sacrificed — supposedly to do with creation. Her face was formed by two serpents — after her head was cut off and the blood spurted from her neck in the form of two gigantic snakes.”

St. Ignatius of Loyola (1491/5-1556), quoted in Ignatius Loyola, the founder of the Jesuits, Paul Van Dyke, C. Scribner’s Sons, 1927, p. 87) see also Eph. 6:11-12; Matt. 10:16; Rom. 16:19; 1 Cor. 14:20; Eph. 5:15-17; Jas. 3:13-18)

“As the devil showed great skill in tempting men to perdition, equal skill ought to be shown in saving them. The devil studied the nature of each man, seized upon the traits of his soul, adjusted himself to them and insinuated himself gradually into his victim’s confidence—suggesting splendours to the ambitious, gain to the covetous, delight to the sensuous, and a false appearance of piety to the pious—and a master of saving souls ought to act in the same cautious and skillful way.”
