There is something about the mysteries of the universe that draws humanity in. Some seek answers through scientific inquiry, others through faith and many believe the two are not mutually exclusive. But when a scientific institution begins to dabble in what appears to be the supernatural, questions arise about the true nature of its work.
This is exactly the kind of discussion that unfolds in a recent episode of the Certainty4UncertainTimes podcast, where host Lauren and researcher Josh Peck dissect the unsettling spiritual implications behind CERN’s Large Hadron Collider.
CERN, the European organization that oversees the LHC, officially exists to explore the fundamental building blocks of the universe. But as Peck points out, there is more to the story than the public-facing narrative.
“They’ve talked about opening portals, they’ve talked about creating miniature black holes,” he states, referencing statements from scientists involved with the project. While most researchers at CERN are simply driven by scientific curiosity, Peck suggests there may be a shadow group at the top with a different agenda. “I don’t know if you call it like a…like a shadow group…but I do think that there are just certain individuals there that kind of do have more of a…what we would consider a dark spiritual kind of worldview around this stuff.”

Perhaps most concerning are the parallels drawn between CERN’s work and biblical warnings. Peck discusses the LHC’s pursuit of extra-dimensional exploration, citing scientific theories about gravitons—hypothetical particles that could travel between dimensions.
“The weird thing about gravitons is all of the math says that gravitons have the ability to naturally cross over into extra dimensions,” he explains. And what is the goal of CERN’s scientists? To make contact. “They also have…developed an idea on how to…see if there’s intelligent conscious life in these extra dimensions,” Peck reveals.
The notion of communicating with unknown intelligences raises serious theological concerns. Peck does not mince words when making the connection to the spiritual realm. “Isn’t that just a modern-day technological way of praying to and venerating ancient false gods?” he asks. If science has created a new language for the same old spiritual practices, then CERN is, in effect, conducting a highly sophisticated séance. Lauren echoes this concern, likening it to another known gateway to the supernatural. “It’s kind of like they’re playing with a Ouija board almost.”
These warnings are not unfounded speculation but align with biblical prophecy. Peck points to CERN’s location, built over an ancient site associated with Apollyon—also known as Abaddon, the destroyer mentioned in Revelation 9. “To me, it’s like why did they pick that place? Was that a demonic influence?” he asks. The site, he suggests, is no coincidence. Scripture warns of a time when the bottomless pit will be opened, unleashing horrors upon the world. CERN’s work eerily mirrors this prophecy, potentially setting the stage for events foretold in biblical texts.
If this is another Tower of Babel moment—humanity once again attempting to storm the heavens—then history offers a clear warning. “It wasn’t the height of the tower that made God mad. It was what they were actually planning on doing,” Peck reminds listeners. The Tower of Babel was not merely an architectural marvel; it was an act of defiance, an attempt to ascend beyond human limitations and challenge divine order. Is CERN, with its pursuit of otherworldly contact, repeating this ancient transgression?
