> _I think that we are going through some sort of consciousness war, or even spiritual war; different forces pushing, and the transhumanist agenda to me is a very dark force. It’s a force that wants to extinguish humankind while telling us it’s gonna be great, it’s gonna be amazing, and we have no choice._

Physicist and neuroscientist Dr. Alex Gómez-Marín says that materialism should have died out in the 90’s. Maybe it did already, but here I am going to argue that the new threat landscape is no longer simply about the realm of matter as prison that inhibits the realisation of higher consciousness in the way that the classical Gnostics understood it to be, and this is because the dark forces that Gómez-Marín is referring to are certainly not bound to the limitations of physicalist paradigms. In fact, what I believe these forces are doing in reality, is working to co-opt, subvert, profane, and invert teleological spiritual ascension towards reunification with God, which represents true reclamation and redemption, and occurs through self-realisation and Gnosis. Classical Gnosticism understood this well, but we must now begin to factor in ever greater paramaters of soul entrapment or erosion through advanced technological and psionic means.¹

A prime example here is the co-opting of Gnostic ideas by post-materialist transhumanists such as Ray Kurzweil and Nick Bostrom. In his video “[The Crisis EVERYONE Is Ignoring](https://youtu.be/g05RMfQ_3ug?si=cR3AAgqv2IalCXe7)” YouTuber Lungs of Faith rightly points out that classical Gnosticism (and Occultism) has inspired transhumanist ideology because its deep scepticism of the material world, of the body, and its focus on transcendence, aligns with a post-human or cybernetic world view. But Lungs of Faith’s Catholic bias prohibits him from understanding that just because some transhumanist thinkers have borrowed from (or subverted or misinterpreted) some aspects of Gnostic thought, doesn’t mean that Gnosticism itself aligns with, or supports post-humanism and transhumanism. 

In fact, in Sethix Gnosticism, transhumanism represents a primary Achrontic apex-threat to true liberation, redemption, salvation, and spiritual ascension. In the video, Lungs of Faith reiterates Andrew Wilson's claim that (some) transhumanists borrow aspects of Christian morality to suit their agenda, but conveniently cut out the source God from their ontology. The same is true in their co-opting of Gnosticism, so blaming the Gnostics for transhumanism seems more like a jab at the perceived heresy of self Knowledge and our suspicion of materialism, but this is to be expected from a Catholic.

The reality is that the co-option of Christian morality, and the negation of telos orientated towards the source God by the transhumanists represents a primary threat to true Gnostics, Christians, and Catholics alike. This is why the concept of **The Inversion of Seth**, in Sethix Gnosticism directly addresses the transhumanist corruption of the Christ Light, which esoterically speaks to the extinguishing of humankind that Gómez-Marín refers to. In Sethianism, the Seed is essentially immovable and incorruptible at the deepest level of reality (because the divine spark never fully separated from the One), but that doesn't mean that Archnotic forces cannot work towards a deepening of the Separation, or reinforce an accelerated decent into ignorance and darkness by attempting to cut humanity off from Source, God, and from Gnosis.

Here, Sethix Gnostics must come to understand that the classical Gnostic distain for the material world is longer a sufficient ontology within a techno-capitalist, techno-modern, alien, AI, and post-physicalist paradigm.

If the transhumanists are attempting (whether consciously or not) to cut humanity off from Source, then the way that they do this might very well be through 'martrix control systems' and prisons that are understood to operate beyond materialist conditions, whether these be digital, synthetic, noospheric, psychic/telepathic, simulated, post-human, post-biological, holographic, quantum, astral, meta-cosmic, or otherwise; mind uploading, brain-machine interfaces, virtual worlds and mixed reality interfaces, genetic engineering, artificial wombs, nanotech, smart-dust, and psuedo-spiritual frameworks...If the ontology is devoid of higher purpose and telos aligned with the One; that is, orientated back towards reunification with God, then it represents a modern Archontic trap, a derailment, and a 'completion of the Fall' because techno-acceleration devoid of the Path back to God represents an intensification of adversarial conditions that are in reality Satanic.

Gnostics have always struggled with the Luciferic impulse, there's no denying it. But redemption does not come through escaping the material world, and certainly not through a negation (hatred even) of biology and the biosphere, as is suggested in for example the so called "[THE Γ/ACC MANIFESTO](https://paragraph.com/@coiltheory/gamma-acc-manifesto)" (Gamma Accelerationism); a corrupted, pseudo-Gnostic form of accelerationism that's anti-biological and Promethean → Satanic.

Here, we must come to understand that the world is where we have come to serve, and true redemption is realised only through contribution and service to others, which acts towards ending the Separation. On the Next Level Soul podcast, psychic and intuitive [Marisa Liza Pell](https://youtu.be/s1pQU180o2E?si=vkpxI758Ok5W2lS9&t=1578) said;

> We're kind of screwed. Even light workers now are being called to ground. Its not time to go further out into the ether, or whatever. Its time to come back home, because the Earth is in trouble. This isn't about your personal dreams and goals anymore. Its about; _the Earth is in trouble, humanities in trouble, and the Earth is plummeting in frequency and disconnection_...
> 
> We're going further and further down in disconnection, right? So a lot people think theres a divide here ↔, but really the divide is in frequency ↕ ...

> ...You cant even get to \[some of these\] people anymore because they're so spiralled down into the \[fear\] grid, and so that is where the Earth is going,

> ...The reason why we have to do this, is because we have to go back through our bodies, through the chakras in reverse, move through all those layers of trauma to get to the light body, and the pillar of light body activated again, grounded to the Earth grid, and then we can start back our work; the work that we're here for, the purpose work. We need as many of those light pillars on the Earth to then come back, because they're going to be the leaders of consciousness.

Although orthodox religious thinkers might view this as New Age woo and fluff, if you understand the esoteric concepts of the activation of light through grounding oneself in the physical Earth (grid) where the light represents the Christ energy and higher consciousness realisable in each of us, and the necessity of Christ's incarnation and resurrection, as part of a process of salvation regarding the positively polarised evolution of Earth and humanity, which we are all a part of and contributing towards, then it starts to make sense.

The forces attempting to cut humanity off from this Light—encompassing our physical bodies and our chakra systems, which are able to hold and express the divine Christ/Seth energy—represent the real threat that we are facing metaphysically speaking. And as we have shown, this goes well beyond materialist paradigms.

¹ This essay focuses on the menace of transhuman transcendence, but it is worth noting that within UFO and abduction lore–including some whistleblower accounts–Grey aliens have long been reported to have developed the means to extract soul essence or life-force energy from an individual, and then implant this into another body, or network of bodies, viewing humans as "containers." Whats more, the subject of non-physical entities imprisoning the human soul within low-energy density cycles of re-birth, and preventing progress or ascent towards higher densities, as part of a process of 'loosh' type feeding through harvest cycles, are also discussed in many fringe contexts. I don't necessarily support either of those theories, as I don't think that I personally have enough confidence to say that they are actually occurring. I therefore refrain from discussing and writing about them for the most part; however, when we consider ideas of soul entrapment inside various aspects of a matrix-type holographic reality, as part of a neo-gnostic ontology, they are certainly worth mentioning, and I may discuss them in more detail in the future.
