| Sumario: | In this paper, it is aimed to think about transhumanism at the limits of the border of religion on the way to a post-religion. The literature review is adopted as the main methodology and the study is structured in four parts: (1) presentation of dessecularization of society towards the intramundane mystical attitude in Ernst Tugendhat’s philosophy as an overcoming of death; (2) analysis of the underlying religious categories and redemptive promises of the trans-humanist philosophical project; (3) assessment of the resulting socioethical dilemmas, mainly in late stage capitalism; and (4) a contribution sketch based on the concept of alterity in Lévinas and Buber. The conclusion is that such theoretical framework poses a viable alternative to deal with the issues transhumanism aims to solve, as well as those that may arise from it. |
