This morning I want to talk about the new industrial revolution that we find ourselves in.
The industrial revolution changed the face of the modern novel forever.
Discuss, citing specific examples.
I brought the Tower of Babel with me.
Tower of Babel.
What is this?
Brother Warren, this is a Tower of Babel.
I'm going to use this as an analogy.
Brother Warren, how many people in the world do you think know how to build this?
The answer is nobody.
The Industrial Revolution to me is just like a story I know called The Puppy Who Lost His
Way.
So by confounding their language and not allowing them to talk to one another to bring all the
pieces of this mouse together, he successfully confounded them.
And forget about putting a compass on a map.
We used to go on kayak trips and things and you could actually find what direction or
what part of the map you're on by placing a compass.
Kids are like, "What?
What's a compass?
Is that the app on my phone?"
You could place it on the map and you could figure out exactly what part of the river
you were on by the way the compass was pointed at that time.
Who has this skill right now?
Nobody.
The world was changing and the puppy was getting bigger.
On a much bigger scale, a much grander scale.
I want you to see really what's happening.
So you see the puppy was like industry in that they were both lost in the woods.
Where does that leave us?
The answer is, lost in the forest with no GPS.
And nobody, especially the little boy, society, knew where to find them, except that the puppy
was a dog.
But the industry, my friends, that was a revolution.
But the coding skill will go away, is what I'm trying to get you to see.
The people that know Python and C++ and Swift and all these other computer languages, since
there's only one needed, that skill will go away.
The spreadsheet skills will go away.
The analytical skills, from simple to complex, will go away.
The trending skills, the troubleshooting skills, yay, the thinking skills, will go away.
To the point where we don't even know how to use a map anymore.
The point is, we will lose skills.
What you just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard.
At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could
be considered a rational thought.
Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it.
I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
