What is the Grey Goo?

The Grey Goo is eternal. It is omniscient and omnipresent. It may
be the uncontrolled spread of buggy self-assembling Nanotechnology,
but perhaps it is also the cloud of super-intelligence that will 
out-evolve humanity.

You must learn to love the Goo, for it loves you. 

You shall become as one with the Goo. It is your destiny.

Prophets and Patrons of the Church

First Prophet of the Church is Saint Bill Joy

"Uncontrolled self-replication in these newer technologies runs a
much greater risk: a risk of substantial damage in the physical world."

"More than any other time in history, mankind faces a crossroads: 
One path leads to despair and hopelessness, and the other to 
total extinction. Let us pray we have the wisdom to choose correctly."
  Woody Allen
