Christian Transhumanism is an ecclesiastical movement contemplating the use of science and technology, to enhance human mental and physical abilities and aptitudes, and overcome what it regards as undesirable and unnecessary aspects of the human condition, such as disability, suffering, disease, aging, and involuntary death, within the scope of Christian thought. Transhumanist Christians study the possibilities and consequences of developing and using human enhancement techniques and other emerging technologies to try and formulate a Christian perspective for these developments. Possible dangers, as well as benefits, of powerful new technologies that might radically change the conditions of human life are also of concern to the Christian transhumanist.
