Transhumanism, theology, cyborgs, and what to do about it all. We discuss H+ as a movement, focussing on the ideas of super-longevity, super-intelligence, and super-wellbeing. Ray Kurtzweil's dream of living forever on a digital platform may come true; if it does, Jeff requests his consciousness be kept on a Mac OS not a PC.

Dr. Oesch is Associate Professor of Theology and director of the MA in Theology at Concordia University, Irvine. He is also the creator and essayist on fishingforleviathan.com.
