Tech billionaire Peter Thiel made The Wall Street Journal this week, not for his Silicon Valley investing prowess, but for his persistent warnings about the Antichrist.

Thiel says that if we keep fearing, regulating or opposing technological progress, we will hasten the arrival of the Prince of Darkness.

“We are sleepwalking into Armageddon,” he says.

Thiel is continuing his apocalyptic rants in a four-part lecture series that runs through October in San Francisco. His last such speech was on Monday.
