I recently have been learning about the TESCREAL bundle of philosophies, having, myself, partaken in at least 3 of them: transhumanism (through the anti-aging scene of Aubrey DeGrey), rationalism, and effective altruism.
Over dinner last night a friend remarked: “A vision for a future with eternal life? Sounds like Catholicism in medieval Europe…”
Death is a painful thing for an ego to accept. It’s natural to want to deny it. If you’re too rational to believe in heaven or reincarnation, then perhaps a materialist, science-based utopian afterlife is your flavor of wine…
