Pope Leo XIV wrote that transhumanist and posthumanist currents promised that technology would eventually eliminate diseases, pain, aging, and death. He believed that scientific progress, the result of human intelligence, should not become a privilege reserved for millionaires in search of immortality, while entire peoples suffered from misery and oppression. He also denounced the illusion of human beings optimized by cybernetics and biotechnologies, stating that, according to Christian anthropology, limitations were a condition of human greatness and not a defect. #VoyageApostolique #Pérou #MagnificaHumanitas https://t.co/Nkr7VBAxKT #Transhumanisme #Posthumanisme #Humanité (translated)
