Technology is a fruit of the tree of knowledge. To become a purely digital being is not merely to live apart from the Spirit of God; it is to reject the breath of life that is our soul. If one accepts brain implants and the transhumanist promise of abandoning the body for an eternal digital prison, one risks worse than death: the irreversible destruction of the soul given by God and the forfeiture of receiving the Spirit of Truth and the inheritance of sonship and an eternal life of power, justice and peace. Yet consciousness and identity would remain - trapped in a counterfeit existence as electrical charges on silicon, devoid of wonder and creative capacity - severed from the edge where the spiritual and the physical meet through the cerebrum, our quantum antenna.

Let god know he fucked up and should probably reboot and try yet again to get it right….
Thing is. It actually doesn't preserve consciousness. Human soul is analog. "uploading" to digital doesn't grant eternal life. That's mearly a digital copy, and am imperfect one at that. No digital version of you can completely reimagine you. Just like even the best TV can't perfectly recreate an image,because if you soom in far enough, it still gets pixalated. And there's the risk of errors in the copying process. The "digital consciousness" isn't really you. It's a currupted mimicry. The human soul is a true Mandelbrot Plot. Digital existence is merely a high fidelity image of such Plot. You can zoom in for a awhile, but unlike the real thing, it won't go on forever
