Transhumanism: Freedom or Hell | Gnostic Informant, Grayson Quay, & Gennady Stolyarov II

Will Transhumanism free us, or leave us open to manipulation and control by powerful actors and systems like an immortal Vladimir Putin or Xi Jinping, armed with cybernetics, AI, and genetic engineering?

The dream of transcending human limits has always been tied to the nightmare of domination. From Plato and Aristotle’s warnings about telos, to Nietzsche’s call to “become gods,” to the Christian critique of hubris, the debate has never been just about technology but about what it means to be human.

Tonight we ask: is transhumanism the path to human freedom from the shackles of mother nature & superstition, or the cybernetic road to hell?
