AI was NOT used to create this song.

Mankind's greatest enemy is not technology, computers or AI. It is mankind.

"But He [Jesus] turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me; for you are not setting your mind on God’s purposes, but men’s.” (Matthew 16:23)

As email spam exploded in the late 1990s and early 2000s, "Challenge-Response" email systems became a popular filtering method. When an unknown sender emailed a user, the system intercepted the message and sent back an automated challenge (often an early text-based CAPTCHA or a request to perform a simple task). The sender had to manually reply to the challenge to prove they were a human and not an automated spam s_c_r_i_p_t. Once verified, their original message was delivered, and they were added to a whitelist. This song is about those who reply, who should be filtered but aren't. Computers might be sending the spam, but it originated with humans. This applies to all propaganda, fake science/medicine/history/religion/politics, et cetera. "There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death." (Proverbs 14:12)

Written, performed, and produced by Arnie Stanton.

Now, what have you done?
Two wrongs, and then a right?
Pretend you know what you're doing
Say it with a straight face
You're more than a sender
You're the great offender!

Chances are, you won't stop
Can't catch the carrot on the stick
Displaying fake altruism
It's much lust for fame and fortune
You're more than a sender
You're the great offender! x
