By Full Spectrum Data Surveillance, Transhumanism, and the Religion of the End

In 1957 Julian Huxley, brother of Aldous Huxley, coined the term “Transhuman.”
Julian was a staunch evolutionist, eugenicist, and globalist; he was also the grandson of T.H. Huxley, a contemporary and proponent of Darwin and his theory of evolution. In basic, Julian believed that up until the modern era, humanity had hitherto naturally evolved by chance. Before modern man stood the opportunity to take the reins of power from “natural selection,” humanity could be the guide of its own evolutionary process! Of course, this job did not fall to all of humanity, only those who have been “chosen” by history to do so. This idea was not unique to Mr. Huxley. Others such as Jonas Salk, to name but one, also spoke in similar terms in his book “Survival of the Wisest.”
It seems very plausible that the “mystic” evolutionist, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (himself a Jesuit priest), brought a certain religious aspect to the Transhuman ideology. It is certain that Transhumanism, as we know it, is religious in its application and intent, as will be made clear in this article. Vital to Transhumanism is Evolutionism, or Darwinism. Mr. Teilhard himself states, “Is evolution a theory, a system, or a hypothesis? It is much more – it is a general postulation to which all theories, all hypotheses, all systems must henceforth bow and which they must satisfy in order to be thinkable and true. Evolution is a light which illuminates all facts, a trajectory which all lines of thought must follow – this is what evolution is” (Genesis, Creation, and Early Man, the Orthodox Christian Vision. Platina, CA. pg. 582). Although he did not coin the term “Transhuman,” he speaks in such terms, “May the world’s energies, mastered by us, bow down before us and accept the yoke of our power. May the race of men, grown to fuller consciousness and great strength, become grouped into rich and happy organisms in which life shall be put to better use and bring a hundredfold return” (Ibid. pg. 585). Humanity will transcend its confines.
It is worth noting that Julian Huxley wrote the introduction to a book by Teilhard, The Phenomenon of Man.
Early Transhumanists looked more to social institutions to mold the “new” man, yet as technology advanced rapidly over the 20th and 21stcenturies, it was soon recognized as the most potent tool in the Transhumanist desire to remake man and the world. Central to the current Transhumanist dogma is Artificial Intelligence (AI). It is very important to comprehend that most of the current “elites” are Transhumanists. Transhumanism seeks an event called “Singularity.” When achieved, it claims, humanity as we know it will be no more. It seeks to overcome sickness and death and liberate the human consciousness from the bonds of the body. Transhumanism is profoundly anti-Christian and has developed an anti-Gospel, in which AI will save humanity. Read Full Article >
