"For the body is a domestic animal. Therefore, you must go about perfecting yourself"
Jesus Christ - The Book of Thomas The Contender
With all the talk about transhumanism I thought I would offer up my two cents worth.
The poem below, I wrote years ago. Interestingly enough it applies to today's notions about the ability of artificial intelligence to transform the human primate into God. It can be found in my book entitled Thoughts From A Contemplative Beast: The Paradigm Shift For The New Millennium.
Faithfully yours,

NO
ESCAPING FROM YOUR SELF
Science
you blame
for our
degenerate ways.
Too much
knowledge,
you say
is the culprit.
How can this
be?
Science
is a mere tool.
Layers
upon layers of delusions,
we must
sift through,
to get to
the Truth of the matter.
But no
matter
how much
fruit you eat from
the tree
of knowledge,
you will
always remain
a subject
in the kingdom of
God .
