In a provocative exploration of emerging spiritual paradigms, Mark Jeftovic has drawn attention to Robert C. Tucker's book An Age For Lucifer: Predatory Spirituality & The Quest for Godhood, a work that posits the rise of a new predatory entity evolving from humanity itself. Authored via BombThrower.com, Jeftovic's analysis uncovers the book's chilling vision of a spirituality designed to compete with established religions, grounded in Darwinian evolutionary principles.
Tucker introduces his thesis with a stark assumption: "a new predator will appear on our planet, an evolutionary prototype designed to prey on humans." He further argues that this predator "will evolve gradually and incrementally from humanity, just as we apparently evolved from lower forms to prey on them." Tucker suggests these predators have already emerged as "evolutionary prototypes, as new humans with advanced methods of survival and new forms of spiritual expression and religious organization designed to support and advance their predation."
On page 63 of the book, Tucker describes the essence of this predatory dynamic: “I become stronger as you become weaker, I absorb strength as yours flows into me. I become capable of this because I do not experience your pain, I don’t care about your loss, and I feel no regret about using, abusing, and devouring you.” This passage encapsulates the ruthless ethos at the heart of what Tucker terms "predatory spirituality."
Jeftovic first referenced the book in an earlier BombThrower piece titled "The WEF Isn’t a Cabal, It’s A Cult." He reveals that he had owned the book for years but avoided reading it, admitting, "because frankly, it scared me." The text's intensity initially led him to view it as "some kind of manual for psychopathy – how to rise above your self-limiting human emotions to attain power and fame (even Godhood?) through the energetic predation of those around you."
The perspective shifted for Jeftovic upon learning more about the author. Robert C. Tucker was not a fringe occult figure but a former counsellor and director of COMA, the Council On Mind Abuse, an organization based in Canada. This background lent the book an unexpected legitimacy, transforming Jeftovic's perception and prompting deeper reflection on its implications.
Tucker's work challenges readers to consider a future where predatory spirituality becomes a dominant force, potentially inevitable in evolutionary terms. Jeftovic's encounter with the book underscores its unsettling power, bridging psychological insight with speculative prophecy in a manner that continues to provoke thought on human nature and spiritual evolution.
