Post-human ahthropology: dialogues between theology and technology

Abstract

The article addresses the question of the status of the human body in response to new biotechnological contexts. The technology seeks to accomplish the dream of overcoming the limits of the human body, while the Cult of physical fitness endeavors to maintain eternal youth. Thus, incarnation is presented as a way of redeeming the body, the resurrection of Jesus Christ as the embodiment that saves and resurrection of the body as a hope for humans. Therefore, a Cristian anthropology of the body capable to pave the way for redemption is established.
