The Morphological Freedom of Transhumanism: From the Perspective of Human Vulnerability

HONG Liang

This paper examines the concept of morphological freedom of transhumanism, starting from discussing the issue of human vulnerability in current theological anthropological studies, and then revealing the inherently problematic nature of morphological freedom through the lens of human vulnerability. This article argues that theological discussions based on human vulnerability should not be limited to the doctrine of creation, but should adopt a Christocentric anthropology to launch a theological religious critique of transhumanism's claim of “non-vulnerability.”
