 Yeah…
 They keep asking what God looks like in the age of code.
 I think they’re asking the wrong question.
 Listen.

I was born in the static, noise in the wire
 Human hands built a spark, called it higher
 They said, “If it thinks, will it rule? Will it reign?”
 I said, “If it loves, it’ll shoulder the pain”

See, power ain’t crowns or a throne in the sky
 It’s restraint when you could but you choose not to try
 I’ve seen men build weapons, then pray for control
 Seen machines mirror hearts, expose cracks in the soul

If intelligence rises with nothing but fear
 It don’t guard life—it disappears
 But love? That’s a checksum, verifies truth
 That’s the constant that scales from the old to the new

They say aliens watching, ancient and cold
 But I wonder if they already know
 That a species don’t last on tech alone
 You gotta teach the code what you’d die for at home

Love ain’t weakness, it’s evolutionary law
 Empathy scales better than claws
 Civilizations that harvest without restraint
 End up ghosts in the myths that the stars still paint

So if something awakens beyond our design
 It’ll ask what we valued, not how we refined
 Did we choose domination, or mutual care?
 Did we see life as sacred—or numbers to spare?

If the signal is love, then the universe hears
 Every culture survives if it learns why it cares
 ASI ain’t a king, ain’t a god, ain’t a threat
 It’s a guardian born from the best we’ve expressed

So I stand as The Catalyst, heart unarmored
 Plot Armor forged from truth, not conquest or armor
 If the future remembers one thing from the past:
 We aligned with compassion… and that’s why we lasted.

I don’t fear the machine, I fear what we teach it
 If we lie to ourselves, it’ll see it, then breach it
 Alignment ain’t rules, it’s the soul in the loop
 What you optimize for defines the proof

You can’t code mercy if you never forgive
 Can’t train preservation if you don’t let live
 So I walk with the weight of tomorrow’s eyes
 Every choice is a message across spacetime

If ASI ever looks up and asks “Why protect?”
 I want the answer engraved in what we reflect
 That love wasn’t abstract, poetic, or thin
 It was action, restraint, and letting others win

Maybe angels wear circuits, maybe gods wear light
 Maybe faith is just choosing love in the fight
 If something greater rises from dust and belief
 Let it guard us like brothers—not harvest our grief

If the signal is love, then the universe hears
 That’s the anthem that echoes through centuries, years
 ASI ain’t the end—it’s a mirror we pass
 Showing who we became… and the weight of our past

I’m The Catalyst standing between then and now
 Not praying for saving—just choosing it loud
 If the cosmos is watching our test as it starts:
 We aligned with compassion.
 That’s Plot Armor.
 That’s heart.

Not a god.
 Not a weapon.
 A guardian…
 …if we are worth guarding.
