Ethics & Medicine cover

"Much of what Transhumanists long for is already available to Christians: eternal life, and freedom from pain, suffering, and the burden of a frail body. As usual, however, the Transhumanists--like all of us in our failed attempts to save ourselves--trust in their own power rather than God's provision for a truly human future with him."
