“…These are the kind of issues that we are dealing with when it comes to implementing the latest advances in biotechnologies in the direction of human augmentation (Strahovnik 2019). The new movements of »Transhumanism« and »Posthumanism« seem to embrace this development much too eagerly (Klun 2019; Platovnjak and Svetelj 2019), trumpeting a new era of a »new human being« and a better world.…”

This article focuses on the development of science and technology as manifested in the four industrial revolutions in the modern era, highlighting their ethical implications and challenges against the background of the Christian, monotheistic (metanarrative) framework. It explores the relationship between Christian theology of creation, scientific development, and Western secularization, offering critical assessments about what the global world has come to call »Industrial Revolution 4.0« (IR 4.0, as of the 2010s) and the new ethical dilemmas that IR 4.0 presents to us. While the starting point of our reflection is Western intellectual tradition, authors hope to bring a global perspective on the issue with concrete impulses for further theological/ethical reflection and education.

Moral transhumanism is a project that aims to enhance human beings by using modern technology in a morally beneficial way. This article discusses the problems and ethical dilemmas raised by transhumanism, notably whether (moral) virtues may be enhanced in the proposed manner. To achieve this end, moral transhumanism primarily proposes the use of genetic technology and pharmacology. Regarding moral virtues, the article suggests that sensitivity to reasons is a fundamental feature of human moral cognition. Enhancing moral virtues would diminish this sensitivity or assign it a superfluous role while jeopardizing the person’s autonomy and self-determination.
