生命的设计——基于人类2.0

哲学人类学从传统上无需辩驳是致力于"人类1.0"的,人类1.0符合人类自身体出生就存在的默认的规范性期望。然而,这一关于存在的存在轨迹总是被引向两个不同的方向,一个使我们更深地嵌入自然,另一个则让我们超越自然[1]第二章。本文将从"人类2.0"的"后-"和"超人类"的视角之间的一个新兴分支的角度来考察这两种景象——首先从概念上考察,然后就他们具体的生存条件和教育需求的各自含义来进行。同时,这两种情形清楚表明"人类2.0"是关于功能对形式的符合或信息对媒介的符合。最后,文章将转入考察"人类2.0"的神学基础,并与将科学看做人成为神的顶点这一认识联系起来,通过人成为神这一过程,经由一种世界和自我转化的持续进程,进而意识到我们这一存在的神性的潜在。

Design For Life in Humanity 2.0

Philosophical anthropology has been traditionally and unapologetically dedicated to ’Humanity 1.0’,which corresponds to the default normative expectations of beings born with our bodies.However,the existential trajectory of this being has always pulled in two different directions,one that would embed us more in nature and another that would have us transcend nature(Fuller 2011: chap.2).The author explores these prospects in terms of an emerging division between ’post-’ and ’transhumanist’ visions of ’Humanity 2.0’ – first conceptually and then in terms of their respective implications for concrete living conditions and educational requirements.Together the two cases make clear that ’Humanity 2.0’ is about the matching of function to form or message to medium.Finally the author turns to consider the theological underpinnings of ’Humanity 2.0’,which the author associates with an understanding of science as the culmination of theosis,the process by which through a continual process of the transformation of world and self,we come to realize the divine potential of our being.
