Biblical Context
The article’s discussion of transhumanism and artificial-intelligence ethics has an indirect biblical connection through questions about human identity, dignity, moral responsibility, and the proper use of knowledge. Scripture presents human beings as made in God’s image and calls for wisdom and discernment, but it does not directly address modern artificial intelligence or transhumanism. Therefore, the connection is thematic rather than a specific biblical teaching about these technologies.
