The Intersection of Radical Human Enhancement and Faith with Dr. Calvin Mercer


Listen Later

If you could choose to live forever, would you want to?  If a scientific advancement could make it possible for you to reverse aging, would you make a jump for the fountain of youth?  

 

In this episode, we talk with Dr. Calvin Mercer, co-author of Religion and the Technological Future.  Dr. Mercer has spent the last several decades researching the intersection of radical human enhancements and increased human longevity with the areas of spirituality and faith.  What are the spiritual implications of technologies like artificial intelligence, cryogenics, mind uploading, super intelligence and super longevity?  How do faith and science interact with human advancement as these technologies become realities?

 

You don’t want to miss out on this mind-blowing conversation that brings light to the actual possibilities that used to only be considered science fiction.  This was a fascinating conversation and we could have talked with Calvin all night!
