Grayson Quay joins Samantha Stephenson to expose the seductive logic of transhumanism—and the moral and spiritual cost of buying in. From AI and brain chips to synthetic immortality and gene editing, the push to “upgrade” the human experience promises power but may unravel what makes us human.
This conversation cuts through the hype to reveal what’s really at stake. Is transhumanism a scientific breakthrough or a new form of worship? What happens when we lose our reverence for the body and our humility before its limits?
Topics we cover:
– Why transhumanism is less science, more spiritual counterfeit
– The link between tech worship and ancient heresies
– What the push to overcome nature reveals about modern despair
– Whether enhancement is actually a form of self-erasure
Mentioned in this episode:
The Transhumanist Temptation
