  • Eschatology and the Technological Future
    Eschatology and the Technological Future This book offers an insightful and timely analysis of key theorists and ideas in the intersection between theology and technology. From the religiously inspired technological optimism of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and Nikolai Fedorov, to the darker technological pessimism of Jacques Ellul, the contributions of Christian theorists to under- standing the technological milieu can offer us fresh perspectives on some intractable problems of modern life. As Burdett clearly shows, technological optimism and utopianism have religious roots, and a technological culture that ignores its own roots is in danger not only of environmental devastation, but also existential and spiritual despair. A fi ne book at a critical time. — David Lewin, Liverpool Hope University, UK The rapid advancement of technology has led to an explosion of speculative theories about what the future of humankind may look like. These “tech- nological futurisms” from the fi elds of nanotechnology, biotechnology and information technology are drawing growing scrutiny from the philosophi- cal and theological communities. This text seeks to contextualize the grow- ing literature on the cultural, philosophical and religious implications of technological advancement by considering technological futurisms such as transhumanism in the context of the long historical tradition of technologi- cal dreaming. Michael Burdett traces the latent religious sources of our con- temporary technological imagination by looking at visionary approaches to technology and the future in seminal technological utopias and sci- ence fi ction and draws on past theological responses to the technological future with Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and Jacques Ellul. Burdett’s argu- ment arrives at a contemporary Christian response to transhumanism based around the themes of possibility and promise by turning to the works of Richard Kearney, Eberhard Jüngel and Jürgen Moltmann.

  • Human Extinction Risks in the Cosmological and Astrobiological Contexts
    HUMAN EXTINCTION RISKS IN THE COSMOLOGICAL AND ASTROBIOLOGICAL CONTEXTS Milan M. Ćirković Astronomical Observatory Belgrade Volgina 7, 11160 Belgrade Serbia and Montenegro e-mail: [email protected] Abstract. We review the subject of human extinction (in its modern form), with particular emphasis on the natural sub-category of existential risks. Enormous breakthroughs made in recent decades in understanding of our terrestrial and cosmic environments shed new light on this old issue. In addition, our improved understanding of extinction of other species, and the successes of the nascent discipline of astrobiology create a mandate to elucidate the necessary conditions for survival of complex living and/or intelligent systems. A range of topics impacted by this “astrobiological revolution” encompasses such diverse fields as anthropic reasoning, complexity theory, philosophy of mind, or search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI). Therefore, we shall attempt to put the issue of human extinction into a wider context of a general astrobiological picture of patterns of life/complex biospheres/intelligence in the Galaxy. For instance, it seems possible to define a secularly evolving risk function facing any complex metazoan lifeforms throughout the Galaxy. This multidisciplinary approach offers a credible hope that in the very close future of humanity all natural hazards will be well-understood and effective policies of reducing or eliminating them conceived and successfully implemented. This will, in turn, open way for a new issues dealing with the interaction of sentient beings with its astrophysical environment on truly cosmological scales, issues presciently speculated upon by great thinkers such as H. G. Wells, J. B.

  • Transhumanism, Progress and the Future
    A peer-reviewed electronic journal published by the Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies ISSN 1541-0099 20(2) – December 2009 Transhumanism, Progress and the Future Philippe Verdoux [email protected] Journal of Evolution and Technology - Vol. 20 Issue 2 –December 2009 - pgs 49-69 http://jetpress.org/v20/verdoux.htm Abstract This paper argues that one can advocate a moral imperative to pursue enhancement technologies while at the same time rejecting the historical reality of progress and holding a pessimistic view of the future. The first half of the paper puts forth several arguments for why progress is illusory and why one has good reason to be pessimistic about the future of humanity (and posthumanity). The second half then argues that this is entirely consistent with also championing the futurological vision of transhumanism. The claim is that, relative to the alternatives proposed, this vision actually offers the safest route into the future, even if it also entails an increase in the probability of self-annihilation. 1. Transhumanism and progress Transhumanism is a recent philosophical and cultural movement that has both descriptive and normative components: (1) the descriptive claim is that current and anticipated future technologies will make it possible to radically alter both our world and persons, not just by “enhancing” the capacities that we already have but also by adding entirely new capacities not previously had.1 (2) The normative claim is that we ought to do what we can to foment and accelerate the creation of such “enhancement” technologies, thereby converting the possibility of a “posthuman” future into an actuality.

  • Catastrophe: Risk and Response; Collapse
    Book Reviews John D. Donahue Editor Note to Book Publishers: Please send all books for review directly to the incoming Book Review Editor, Eugene B. McGregor, Jr., Indiana University, School of Public & Environmental Affairs, 1315 E. 10th Street, Bloomington, IN 47405-1701. Katherine Kaufer Christoffel Private Guns, Public Health, by David Hemenway, Ann Arbor, MI: University of Michigan Press, 2004, 344 pp., $27.95 cloth. “The public health approach is ideally suited to deal with our gun problem. Public health emphasizes prevention rather than fault-finding, blame, or revenge. It uses sci- ence rather than belief as its basis and relies on accurate data collection and scientific analysis. It promotes a wide variety of interventions—environmental as well as individ- ual—and integrates the activities of a wide variety of disciplines and institutions. Most important, public health brings a pragmatic attitude to problems—finding innovative solutions . .” (p. 25) Based on that laudable view, David Hemenway wrote Private Guns, Public Health to provide an authoritative overview of public health thinking about gun injuries and deaths in the United States. The perspectives and data summarized were developed over several 20th-century decades, and refined over the last 15 years, that is, in the wake of the tsunami of urban youth gun homicides in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The material is well-known to those who were involved in gun injury pre- vention research and advocacy during this time. It is not as well-known to the gen- eral public, policymakers, or young public health professionals. This book is an excellent summary for all of us and a good introduction to the field for newcomers.

  • Identifying and Assessing the Drivers of Global Catastrophic Risk: a Review and Proposal for the Global Challenges Foundation
    Identifying and Assessing the Drivers of Global Catastrophic Risk: A Review and Proposal for the Global Challenges Foundation Simon Beard and Phil Torres Summary The goal of this report is to review and assess methods and approaches for assessing the drivers of global catastrophic risk. The review contains five sections: (1) A conceptual overview setting out our understanding of the concept of global catastrophic risks ​ (GCRs), their drivers, and how they can be assessed. (3) A brief historical overview of the field of GCR research, indicating how our understanding of the drivers of GCRs has developed. (2) A summary of existing studies that seek to quantify the drivers of GCR by assessing the likelihood that different causes will precipitate a global catastrophe. (4) A critical evaluation of the usefulness of this research given the conceptual framework outlined in section 1 and a review of emerging conceptual, evaluative and risk assessment tools that may allow for better assessments of the drivers of GCRs in the future. (5) A proposal for how the Global Challenges Foundation could work to most productively improve our understanding of the drivers of GCRs given the findings of sections 2, 3, and 4. Further information on these topics will be included in three appendices, each of which is an as-yet-unpublished academic paper by the authors, alone or in collaboration with others. These are: (A) Transhumanism, Effective Altruism, and Systems Theory: A History and Analysis of Existential Risk Studies. (B) An Analysis and Evaluation of Methods Currently Used to Quantify the Likelihood of Existential Hazards. (C) Assessing Climate Change’s Contribution to Global Catastrophic Risk.

  • Scientific Eschatology∗
    SLAC-PUB-11063 17 March 2005 SCIENTIFIC ESCHATOLOGY∗ H. Pierre Noyes and James V. Lindesayy Stanford Linear Accelerator Center MS 81, Stanford University, 2575 Sand Hill Road, Menlo Park CA 94025, [email protected] Abstract The future evolution of the universe suggested by the cosmological model proposed earlier at this meeting by the authors is explored. The fundamental role played by the positive \cosmological constant" is emphasized. Dyson's 1979 paper entitled Time Without End is briefly reviewed. His most optimistic scenario requires that the uni- verse be geometrically open and that biology is structural in the sense that the current complexity of human society can be reproduced by scaling up its (quantum mechan- ical) structure to arbitrary size. If the recently measured \cosmological constant" is indeed a fundamental constant of nature, then Dyson's scenario is, for various rea- sons, ruled out by the finite (De Sitter) horizon due to exponential expansion of the resulting space. However, the finite temperature of that horizon does open other interesting options. If, as is suggested by the cosmology under consideration, the current exponential expansion of the universe is due to a phase transition which fixes a physical boundary condition during the early radiation dominated era, the behavior of the universe after the relevant scale factor crosses the De Sitter radius opens up still other possibilities. The relevance of Martin Rees' apocalyptic eschatology recently presented in his book Our Final Hour is mentioned. It is concluded that even for ∗Work supported in part by Department of Energy contract DE{AC02{76SF00515. yPermanent address: Department of Physics and Computational Physics Lab, Howard University, Washington, D.C.
