Foundation Joins Transhumanist Argument For Creating A
Replacement God Or A Vast Number Of New Gods (Actually
Pathways For Return Of Old Gods) After posting a few
weeks back on a Richard Dawkins article specific
to Jesus and Atheism, I was reminded of a post
called the New God Argument by Lincoln Cannon. I first
heard this argument at the University of Utah from
Lincoln while visiting the area for a conference.
Its logically sound, when the faith position is
adopted. The argument is a derivative or rather
an advancement on Nick Bostrom’s Simulation Argument
and and Robin Hanson’s Great Filter argument. I’ve
even sited Bostom’s 2003 paper in my own defense
after being wrongfully labeled as an atheist. Its one
thing to state that there is no God (atheism) or that
we cannot know if there is a God (agnosticism), and
quite another to state that we could create or evolve
into one or a vast many. I think that Lincoln’s
argument is progressive and may provide the next wave
of theology arguments...
