Social Engineering

1/. In the context of information technology and security, this involves various malicious activities or scams that manipulate or trick users into divulging confidential or personal information that may be used for deceitful purposes.

2/. In morality, this is managing human beings by their place and function in society through purging the world of those deemed undesirable people. Methods used include genetic screening for fetal defects, abortion, compulsory sterilization, and euthanasia. Genocide is the extermination of an ethnic, racial, or religious group considered not wanted by those who have the power to carry out such acts of violence. For social engineers to usurp God’s authority over life and death and cull unwanted and unfit people is murder and violates His values and the worth of people. The Bible advocates defending the weak and disadvantaged (Ps 41:1, 82:4; Mt 25:34-36; Act 20:35).
