Three years ago, I came across a medical/philosophy paper on transhumanism that was published in 2010. It has taken me three years to grasp 90% of the philosophical material. Despite the difficulty, I struggle with it knowing it is like the rosetta stone for how the medical establishment so quickly pivoted to affirming this ideology. Transhumanism is about becoming post-human. The end or essence of being human is replaced to become what one fashions oneself to be. Thus, while nature/God created us with an endpoint to be a human female or male, it is replaced by whatever I want to be using technology. Kids suffering are just low hanging fruit to push the ideology. "Think of the kids" is a great PR trick to guilt everyone into accepting the insanity. Philosophy Professor Kreeft said of science, technology, alchemy and religion, most would put alchemy and religion together and science and technology together. But he says that is wrong as science and religion have as their endpoint truth while alchemy and technology is about mastering nature as Bacon would have it. And we've already gone beyond the ethics of transitioning children. As Psychiatrist and Medical Ethicist, Dr. Aaron Kheriaty, fired for refusing the vax, highlights what are the ethical problems of pigs being created to harvest human organs. Do they have human consciousness, and if so, what does that mean? We have inverted technology for our use and are now increasingly enslaved by it.

Good points. Beyond that, in your last sentence, I think "perverted" is more appropriate than "inverted".

Much easier to understand. A bull castrated after puberty is called an ox. Have you ever heard the expression “ strong as an ox?”

Which leads to the question, "if a man is castrated to become a woman, is the end result a woman that is as strong as an ox?

Please stop using the word "gender" to mean "sex," it only perpetuates the CGT confusion foisted on us. Otherwise, this was a great post, thanks.

I prefer to use gender because if I use sec some people won’t be able to figure out whether it’s being used as a noun or a verb.

Sorry, you rely too much on facts and logic for this to be permissible in 2025!
