In that document, James provides supporting evidence from a variety of religious traditions, particularly Buddhism, and classifies the evidence into categories of metaphysics, theodicy, eschatology and soteriology. In the eschatology category, James refers to a document, from the Mormon Transhumanist Association, which focuses on Transhumanist parallels with Mormon eschatology. That document does not consider Transhumanist parallels with Mormon metaphysics, theodicy or soteriology; however, that is not for any lack of similarities in these areas.</P>Syncretizationhttp://transfigurism.org/community/files/11/second_life_20070429/entry2788.aspxFri, 27 Apr 2007 07:35:28 GMT6699f12c-d662-43eb-911d-fad63e739a29:2788Lincoln Cannon1This is an outline of the document presentation.
