Episode Synopsis

Should humans be like God? Of course, yes! In what way? Should we adopt new technologies for the sake of transforming our bodies into a new techno-humanity? Some call this transhumanism, and according to our guest, Wyatt Graham, to understand transhumanism we must understand Fredrich Niche. In this episode we navigate the difference between becoming God and becoming like God, receiving our humanity rather than altering it.Wyatt Graham is the editor-in-chief for The Gospel Coalition Canada and an Adjunct Professor at various schools, including Redeemer University. Follow him on his Substack: http://wyattgraham.com/Chapters00:00 Introduction to Transhumanism and Theosis02:33 Understanding Theosis03:27 Defining Transhumanism06:05 The Intersection of Technology and Humanity10:20 Restoration vs. Augmentation14:09 The Role of Death in Human Existence19:13 Theosis vs. Transhumanism23:27 The Nature of Love and Humanity28:30 Cultural Implications of Transhumanism33:11 The Future of Technology and HumanitySupport Us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/WWJTOur Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/whatwouldjesustech/Our Discord: https://discord.gg/NVtkqDN9Cohosted by Andrew Noble, Joel Jacob, and Austin Gravley.
