Abstract

Transfigurism is religious transhumanism. Because it is informed by expectations of emerging technology and directed evolution, Transfigurism may provide exceptional insight into the future of religion. It exemplifies postsecular accounts of God, prophecy, and religion. And it exemplifies practical accounts of faith. Transfigurism produces theological innovations, such as the New God Argument, and theodicies that inherit the strengths of engineering ethics. And Transfigurism cultivates narratives that extend tradition into provocative new expressions.
