Το φάρμακο της αθανασίας (The Immortality Drug)

We must revise our whole conception of what redemption is.

Rationalism is still deeply rooted in us, with its insistence on the spiritual alone in after-life.

But redemption is more than an intellectual process, an interior disposition or emotion; we must learn all over again to grasp its divine concrete reality.

Redemption is an integral and vital part of man's existence; so much so that St. Paul (whom certainly no one can accuse of being a worshiper of the body) actually defines it as a process that begins with bodily renewal. This then the gloriously illustrated promise of the Resurrection! Hence Paul's "...and if Christ has not risen, vain then our preaching, vain too is your faith" (I Cor. 15:14). Romano Guardini, The Lord, p. 414

...[N]ot only the spirit of Christ, but his resurrected flesh and blood, his whole, transfigured humanity is redemption!

...[C]ommunion in his flesh and blood is the remedy of immortality, the φάρμακο της αθανασίας as the Greek Fathers called it, of an immortality not only spiritual, but also corporal; of man caught up into the abundance of pure corporal and pure spiritual life in God. Ibid. p. 415

Below, I do not intend to confuse the issue but to make it more incisive by presenting what the latest technology can do by way of producing a man. Nada! Keep at it! and come and follow Jesus!

10 reasons why human level Artificial Intelligence is a false promise.

But we can keep on trying, always, of course, under God!

Καὶ ὁ λόγος σὰρξ ἐγένετο (And the Word was made flesh)! John 1:14
On this all of our earthly existence hangs, and that of heaven, and all eternity.
