Apple has released its new Vision Pro virtual reality goggles, which can overlay the digital world onto the real world. The new device is designed for people to wear them almost constantly. And there are now growing concerns over how this type of technology could alter the human brain, warping reality at its foundations by destroying the common ground that helps shape societies.
In this live Q&A with Crossroads host Joshua Philipp, we’ll discuss this topic and others, and answer questions from the audience.

future hey welcome to Crossroads folks I
want to talk to you today about what's
happening with these new Apple goggles
and the effects they could have on the
human brain because well guess what you
start messing with reality then you
start toying with the wiring of the
brain and you can alter the nature of
how people interpret the world around
them and of course alter Humanity in
unforeseen ways let's talk about it now
you might have seen Apple released its
New Vision Pro virtual reality goggles
and they can overlay the digital world
onto the real world this new device is
designed in a way so that people can
wear them almost constantly this will
become the new reality for the
individuals who do this and there's now
a growing concern of well how's this
technology going alter the human brain
and possibly warp reality at its
foundations by notably destroying the
common ground that help shaped societies
everyone's going to live in their own
little world this is Insider in what it
says it says the Vision Pro like the
similarly kitted out Quest 3 and Quest
Pro headsets from from meta Facebook
uses what's known as pass through video
cameras and other sensors that capture
imagery of the outside world and then
reproduce it inside the device you think
it's real but it's not they feed you a
synthetic environment made to look like
the real one with Apple apps and other
non-real elements floating inside in
front of it and apple and meta it says
are hoping that this virtual world this
new world that looks like the real world
but it's not will be so compelling that
you just won't visit you're hope they're
hoping you'll live there and this is
important when you use these goggles it
seems like you're still in the normal
world seems like you're still in the
normal reality but you're actually not
you're living in a world generated by
Facebook or apple and of course overlaid
with the apps and information they want
to place there and of course you're
subject to the interpretations of the
way reality should be and should not be
based on the those companies now further
in it says that unfortunately this could
have some very weird issues and very
messy consequences for the human brain
researchers had found that widespread
long-term immersion and VR headsets
could literally change the way we
perceive the world and each other they
say that our brains are about to undergo
a massive society-wide experiment we
don't know what it's going to do to us
that could rewire our senses our sense
of the world around us and it says make
it even harder to agree on what
constitutes reality now my take there
are issues where it affects users's
perception you know your brains and
muscles get used to it and so things
like depth perception they start to get
Warped and this can be significant if
you wear these all the time but on a
more significant level besides just
being like disoriented for example when
you take them off because if you wear
them all the time you're in that reality
and the way that you move your hands to
do the gestures to interact with the app
and so on your brain in a way gets
fooled into thinking that that is
reality and when you take them off
you're in a different reality which may
eventually seem less real than the fake
one if you do it too much on a deeper
level though it introduces the ability
to change your own perceived reality you
can remove people you can change
locations you can take things out of
your environment you can put things into
your environment again it's technically
like a very realistic video game
basically and eventually it'll be that
everyone wearing these will have a
different world around them everybody is
going to live in their own little
created world and people will start
losing Common Ground the common reality
shared by human beings is going to go
away and for frequent users you know the
world in the goggles will become your
normal world it's like the Matrix folks
I don't know if any of you folks are or
watched the director commentary on that
but they actually said something very
interesting on some of the experiments
on virtual reality and Virtual Worlds
and keep in mind when that movie came
out and of course they did the director
commentary this was very early on in VR
technology virtual reality technology
they said that based on studies that had
been already conducted at the time the
human brain once it becomes immersed in
an artificial reality can no longer
differentiate real from fake the real
world becomes just as fake as the fake
world and the fake World becomes just as
real as the real world when you take
them off you're going to be disoriented
because your brain believes that the
other one is the true reality and I'd
say if that happens then What Becomes of
the real world around you What Becomes
of the real world for you even and what
happens as well as these become more
integrated where people may not have
much of a choice but to use them or you
get a you know chip in your brain or
something like that and if you add to
this the other things like extremely
immersive violent video games where
people start to think that that's the
real world and they take them off and
they're disoriented won't be everybody
but some people will be affected by it
virtual reality pornography virtual
reality chat Bots that you can visit
your girlfriend or boyfriend that's not
real in your imaginary world by you know
AI to create people who are around you
but they're not really there you're
going to have essentially like digital
schizophrenia of course people who
decide that the real world just too much
and they decide to completely immerse
themselves in this fake reality living
there constantly again as it overlaps
with the real world and then add to this
the other problems the issues of what
this will do you know this technology is
going to do to the human brain itself if
the human brain gets rewired so to speak
speak and of course you're talking about
that because the gestures the movements
the other forms you start to engage in
to interact within that true environment
your body's motor skills actually begin
to adjust to that new reality it's just
like having an artificial limb for
example or for
example a child learning to walk that
becomes the reality you're in and the
human brain compensates for it and as it
does so it's going to have a hard time
moving between realities as you go
between digital and fake or digital and
real and you know people are
experimenting with something really with
this we don't know what the long-term
effects are going to be but it could
significantly warp the lines between
what is real and what is fake because
there are going to be some people who
start to see the fake world is more real
and I think as you have people who don't
want to accept reality of their bodies
or of politics or of anything else uh
they're going to be Escape into
something that's fake and of course as
that becomes more integrated into
society itself we're going to have to
deal with this in terms of how does law
interact with this how does working in
school how do these interact does
driving interact with it already you
have people wearing them while they
drive cars by the way and because it's
going to blur the nature of reality
itself this is going to be essentially
like digital
psychosis a hallucination made to look
real to each individual an individual
who can of course manifest their
delusions into what appears to be a real
space but is not and that artificial
reality will begin slowly to replace
true reality for those people who decide
to use it now let me show you something
else folks there's also push back on a
lot of these wild things we've been
talking about fake meat and bugs and all
this weird stuff but guess what while
there may be some some bans that could
prevent some of this from happening in
fact in Tampa Bay right now let me show
what they're saying Florida the Florida
legislature got an unlikely shout out
earlier this month China weekly it says
a Chinese language publication mentioned
a Florida Bill the ccps very apparently
worried about it that would ban the sale
and manufacturing of cultivated meat
fake meat it's not real meat also
sometimes referred to as lab grown meat
and apparently folks get this it says
the Chinese government is investing
heavily in the technology behind
cultivated meat so you got CCP and you
got Bill Gates and you can put on your
goggles and eat your meat paste and
pretend you have a digital girlfriend
and that's that's your life right sounds
wonderful but it notes further in that
the publication noted this according to
translation provided by the University
of Florida assistant professor Steven
Cory who studies a language Chinese it
says a Florida band of this fake meat
would strengthen China's position they
claim it says the cultivated meat could
issue could put floored as Republican
leaders in an awkward position as a
candidate for president this is before
of course Governor Ronda santz ran on
making American food production more
competitive and they say quote China
increasingly wields power over the
global food supply which is true posing
risks to our domestic food security and
access to foreign Meats his campaign
website read but Des santis they claim
seems to be supporting the ban on
cultivated meat which he referred to
last week as fake meat which it is a
position that could cause American
companies to fall behind worldwide
competitors in a key area of Food
Science now keep in mind this
publication is like advocating for fake
meat and they're saying if we don't get
ahead of the the the fake meat Gap as
You' seen Doctor Strange like that the
fake we have a fake meat Gap and if we
don't close the fake fake meat Gap the
commies will
win of course I'd say that the fake meat
is uh is not quite right and I'd say
actually the commies want the fake meat
and we don't let them have it if China
wants to start eating you know bug paste
and calls it beef or they want to start
growing cows and Petri dishes hey
buddies have at it uh Americans I don't
I don't think most of us want that maybe
you have some people you know it all
powered to them they can import their
China Tea M you know fake meat paste and
have have at it you know good on them
but uh I'm all for Banning it
personally now of course if they do ban
fake meat in the US whether it's lab
grown meat or bug meat or whatever else
they want to make and they're doing this
they're they're even squishing maggots
and they're calling it butter it's
artificial butter using literally
squished maggots um you know I I
encourage vegans and vegetarians who
don't want to hurt cows that if they
they believe that this is what's best
for Humanity they they can have it um
they can have all of it in fact but um
of course you're going to have if they
do outright ban it you're going to have
these individuals being a little unhappy
probably because some of them want this
type of stuff but the issue of fake meat
isn't just on the idea of fake meat the
issue is that it's a patented product
notably with ties to the Chinese
Communist Party a foreign hostile
government that could control part of
our food supply and remember if it's
patented that means is they phase out
normal food production this is important
if they phase out the ability to grow
crops in a way that is Affordable and
sustainable as they move people into
apartments or you know maybe your your
little Cube or something like that and
you don't have a garden and you're
incapable of growing your own food
supply or for that matter if seeds all
become GMO and the seeds are incapable
of producing future generations of seeds
because current seeds do that but the
GMO ones many times do not that means
that the food supply is completely
controlled by privately owned companies
and these companies sometimes with
government ties like the Chinese
Communist party uh will have a monopoly
on the food supply you cannot create a
product that will challenge their market
dominance you cannot create a product
that they have patented or they will sue
you and that means of course that as new
food Technologies are developed and if
these are allowed to be sold and if
they're popularized even or even made to
be cheaper then we're going to have a
privately controlled food supply that
you and I will be locked out of we will
be dependent for our food on big
corporations or big government or maybe
you even a foreign hostile government
and based on this is one of the reasons
why there's a call to just ban it
outright don't let it start don't let it
get a foothold in the market don't let
it try to push out real food and
legitimate food don't let it push out
cows and farmers and everybody else
who's part of the the supply chain for
our food because once you do that you're
creating a very I would say dangerous
possible situation for the future now
DeSantis laid out this plan when he was
running for president he might remember
but it appears he's still pushing the
overall goal against fake meat even
though he's out of the race uh Des
santis is back to being full-time
governor of Florida and he's you know in
my opinion doing a fair decent job with
it now as a reminder though this was his
campaign website when he was talking
about this and further in it said this
news outlets recently reported that
China now owns 380,000 Acres of American
land I should add to this between China
and Bill Gates who was closely tied to
the CCP you do have a monopoly on
Farmland taking place place and of
course as that Monopoly on Farmland
takes place you have China and Bill
Gates looking at you know the future of
food including fake meat and things like
this now Dan santis notes that China
increasingly wields power over the
global food supply posing risks to our
domestic food production and access to
foreign markets I would add to this that
Chinese companies and of course there's
no such thing as a privately owned
company in China everything is to an
extent controlled by the Chinese
Communist Party
there are no purely independent Chinese
companies and the CCP based on Chinese
law has oversight and the ability to
take them and militarize them and do
whatever the heck they want with them
but regardless on that point the CCP
Chinese companies have actually
purchased and now own several of our
major food processors including in the
meat industry but further in santis
notes that Iowa Farmland should be swn
by Iowans not the CCP I'd agree he notes
that in Florida we blocked foreign
countries of concern including China
from purchasing farmland or property
near US military installations and
critical infrastructure and he said that
his president because this was a
campaign website he said he would stop
selling America's future out from under
our feet he notes that China has also
begun to actively steal agricultural
data and Technology he says I will
ensure agriculture policies include
protections against cyber Espionage and
IP theft alof also focus on ensuring our
agriculture cure in infrastructure is
safe from cyber attacks and other
disruptions that he says have targeted
co-ops and meat packing plants in recent
years now I would add to that you might
remember that even you know the CCP in
terms of intellectual property theft was
even stealing corn seeds and a lot of
people be like why would you steal a
corn seed can't you just go to Costco
and you know buy them in the the
gardening aisle technically but the
there are different areas of the
industry I mentioned we're talking about
GMO G genetically modified organisms or
you know products like this uh of course
these are lab created artificial plants
and stuff that have taken the normal
ones and altered them in certain ways
one of the things the companies have
done with corn seeds and actually a lot
of crops for that matter is made it so
that they can grow and survive in
otherwise hostile environments uh maybe
they can grow with very little water
maybe they can grow without needing the
same types of nutrients that you know
they normally need and because of this
you can grow crops in areas that
normally cannot grow crops uh for the
corn seeds for example you can grow them
in areas with very little water and for
the Chinese Communist party where water
pollution is a very serious issue right
now for China where the fertile soil is
going away they're rapidly losing uh for
fertility in their soil and for the
Chinese Communist party which is facing
deserts even moving into the major
cities they're dealing with these types
of Crisis and so they're of course
trying to steal these corn seeds now the
complicated part with this is that
because these are privately owned
products they're not natural the people
the companies that control the products
have made it so that if you plant them
the seeds yielded from them cannot grow
new plants you need to continue buying
these things from these companies in
definitely they have a monopoly on the
food supply because of that and of
course if you're a farmer who can't grow
anything else you have to keep buying
from them every single year you can no
longer retain the seeds from last year's
Harvest and plant next year's Harvest
with them you have to take government
loans buy the seeds and do it every
single year and so they steal not the
one that's planted in the ground but
instead the mother seed that can produce
new ones that's how they do it
now and of course I think all that's
problematic personally but another news
something's happening in Canada a lot of
wild stuff's happening in Canada but
Canada wants the state to now help
mentally ill people commit suicide and
I'll be talking about how this and a
United Nations Terror compound was found
by Israeli troops in Gaza and we talk
about that only on Epic TV folks the
United Nations had a terror cell
operating under one of its facilities
we'll be going into this so for those of
you watching on YouTube Facebook and
Twitter make sure to join us over on
Epic TV Link in the description and in
the live chat not only will you get
access to the rest of this episode we'll
go into the Q&A of course we'll talk
about questions from you all but you'll
also get access to our amazing
documentaries and shows I've been doing
a lot of work lately uh and as well we
have a lot of other shows doing you know
documentaries and so on we just released
a very good one by the way it's called
letter to the American Amer Church
hosted by Eric Maxis which talks about
the Striking similarities between the
modern America and current churches and
those churches in Hitler's early 1930s
Nazi Germany notably the politicization
of the church now the political regimes
of Mao and Stalin of course had many
policies to regulate churches and change
the religion and there are some shocking
overlaps in this the historical and
present parallels are unfortunately grim
and it's important to know all of that
is only on Epic TV so join us there now
and I'll see you over there for the rest
of the
episode I'm
convinced that the American church has
arrived at a significant Moment of
Truth we are only 75 80 years removed
from three separate regimes that killed
60 to 70 million people intentionally
the parallels with where the American
church is now to where the German Church
stood in the face of the Nai regime are
unavoidable and
Grim churches need to understand really
what Marxism is which is to destroy the
church to destroy the word of God so if
you capture the seminaries you capture
the pastors you capture the leoty you
capture the soul of the
world Christianity is not just about
saying Jesus loves you and then going to
heaven one day but that there's a war
that's
[Music]
raging the church is weakening which is
why Marxism is ascendant in America
[Music]
today this is the hour of the American
[Music]
Church
