..".we can do everything the old gods could do and usually better. And many things they never did." He paused. "Which is easier to say," he asked, "'Your sins are forgiven, ' or 'Get up and walk'?" Grace only listened. "One is now as easy as the other. And, in fact, humanity no longer settles for walking. Not even on our own natural legs. We can make better ones now." ** Humanity rapidly gains more and more control over the world around it every day. Most of that control has been along an asymptotic path toward omnipotence. Where once we moved only by the muscles of our legs, now we fly through space in ships of our own design. Where once we were content to die of plagues divinity must have sent, now we banish pestilence with the contents of our minds made manifest. But what of omniscience? This book asks that question. And answers it. Front cover by http: //www.bookcreatives.com/
