A Kansas City author, Rev. Robert Brumet, Birthing the Greater Reality, had this to say about technology and spirituality:
"The paleontologist and Jesuit priest Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (who was born in 1881 and died in 1955) developed a theory of the evolution of consciousness. An invisible sphere of human thought-energy increasingly surrounds the earth, like the biosphere. Although he did not specify a technology, his theory seems to point to what we now call cyberspace.
"He called this sphere of information the 'noosphere' (from the Greek, nous, mind). Technology strengthens the noosphere. Indeed, technology and spiritual evolution are intrinsically woven together."
