The secularist rejects the notion of eternity or eternal life b/c we see a lifespan w/in the universe (a time of a beginning and a breaking down).
-They of coarse, don't realize that God is OUTSIDE of time and our souls belong to God. The Spiritual world has a reality outside of the bounds of time. We see this in scripture.
-A new heavens and a new earth are mentioned in the text of scripture. "The former things will pass away".
-A "post human era" is spoken about a lot in this culture, and what is meant by this phrase?
No longer needing to be dependent on the lifespan that we have (given to us) and the course of human trajectory.
They want to control life: birth and death. They want to expand lifespan and control lifespan.
-Crispr (technology)
-Gene editing and manipulation
-We're in a Transhuman era: A mix between human and machine (computers) transition into a "better and more humane" era for humanity. Gene manipulation. Not allowing the limitations of our genetic makeup.
-Cryonics (suspension) a procedure unlike freezing human bodies this is a different method of preserving the body.
It's said that bodies are no longer alive but aren't dead either??.... what Frankenstein craziness is this???
-Long term memory does exist in animals after being "suspended" in Cryonics method.
-Cryonics is said to have brought back to life extinct animals (?)
-Cryonics seems to be a holding method (waiting for the technology to advance) in order to "bring you back to life" (?)
-More than $40,000 to freeze yourself (or suspend your body by this Cryonics method)... Covered by certain life insurance.
-They want a human that is more intuitive, less aggressive, less greedy, less synical, less untrusting...? .... Not only to extend your life but to build a "better you" - physically as well as mentally.
-Notice how the lady responds to the dude w/ the hat who suggests that instead of dealing w/ longer life and the expense of these things as it'll mainly be a thing for the rich, stating we should be concentrating more on "starvation", ... immediately, the lady gets triggered.
-The gentleman with the hair had a lot of good points, "Before we're trans-human or post-human, we should learn how to be human.".
-He also says that transhumanism is just another human project b/c we will never transcend humanity. Awesome and truthful point.
-The subsequent speaker says, "I think it's beautiful to be human"... wow, well said! Is it no wonder that afterwards he makes reference to God knowing our human sufferings.
I think if we recognize the narrative of God's creation as seen in holy scripture, we can learn and have confidence for a more rubust understanding of what humanity is. Something that definitely gets lost in secular humanism.
He also says that although science is fascinating but it can't have us asking "What kind of human is it worth being?".... More intrinsic questions that lead to self worth ("fundamental to our humanity").
*The very last question she asks the dude (coincidently with the same hair as hers) is "Do you love life..do you want to stop it?"... which I think is the bugged out - bottom line endeavor of these weird elite types: Searching for the holy grail of eternal life without God.
Does she believe in her mentality that unless you want to live forever, you don't truly love life?
It escapes her what the man was alluding to in that, we should be satisfied w/ the course of our life and end of life. "I love chocolate but I don't want to eat it every day"....LOL
That's good!
I don't think she's willing to accept that.
And The Lord of all glory says in His Word:
"And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent." - John 17:3
