Transhumanism seeks to transcend human limits through technology—morphological freedom, augmented reality, and mind uploading—but Christianity values the body as sacred. Society is already being conditioned to accept transhumanist values through social media, wearables, and avatars, subtly reshaping our understanding of identity and reality.
