We live in a time when humanity is increasingly tempted to get used to domination by dark powers. When they get used to it they do not know any different and it is part of normal life. That the powers are dark is not the first thing that comes to mind because the prince of darkness pretends to be an angel of light. So even his servants let people know that they have their best interests at heart. Children and young people also have the full interest of darkness.
About three years ago, we talked about chatbots and Replika, a chatbot that looks like yourself and who you can talk to when you're struggling. Today we walked "just like that1' to SuperChill.
Children are invited to immerse themselves in a "wonderful world" where you can experience "mental powers," become master of "stimuli" that come to you and experience the "magic" - the enchantment - that certain exercises can give you calmness and tranquility.
You can read what Super Chill is below in their own texts.

The crafty temptations
The people behind the Super Chill app all seem very nice, but they all have a background in yoga or meditation. This is also clearly echoed in the texts reproduced above. They are meant to introduce children and young people "playfully" to that other invisible world. A world that wants to take over our inner world of feelings, emotions and thinking.
Therefore, what is happening here is Super Serious. But for parents/grandparents and young people, as well as children who want to follow the Lord, there is only one piece of advice:
“Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.” (Ephesians 6:11).
Because Super Chill also falls into the category cunning temptations!
