The Transhumanist Temptation

How Technology and Ideology Are Reshaping Humanity—and How to Resist

De: Grayson Quay

Narrado por: Ben Hauck, Grayson Quay

From the dawn of creation, the serpent’s whispered lie—“ye shall be as gods”—has echoed through history, and today it manifests itself in the growing transhumanist movement.

Our world stands at a crossroads with commercial surrogacy, genetic engineering, artificial intelligence, and “gender-affirming care” threatening to radically reshape human nature. Will we stand firm on ancient wisdom or risk losing our humanity altogether?

Grayson Quay deftly overturns the lies of transhumanism and cautions listeners about the dystopian brave new world that has already arrived and will only get worse. And yet, he argues, transhumanism has more to do with philosophy than technology. The seeds of transhumanism were all there in the various isms of centuries past, but, under the harsh light of twenty-first-century science, they’re growing as never before.

In an era in which technology offers us the power to redefine what it means to be human, The Transhumanist Temptation presents a bold and urgent clarion call to revisit, embrace, and transmit the natural law. In these harrowing words, you will find:

• The origin of the transhumanist movement (You will be shocked!)

• Whether Christianity and transhumanism are compatible

• How the loss of the supernatural spurs us to reinvent ourselves

• The role of politics in propagating transhumanism

• Ways to escape the danger of becoming a discarnate being

Drawing from Scripture, philosophy, literature, cutting-edge science, and technology experts, this book unveils, in rich detail, the hidden and alarming spiritual threat that transhumanism poses. It explores how this ideology distorts our relationship with our own bodies, with the world around us, with our politics, with our work, and ultimately, with God Himself.

Timely Listen

A timely book wrestling with the questions we face as a society. Well worth listening to and considering what a society we will have if we continue in the madness of transhumanism and what will happen if we abandon God and Christianity.

AI will never be sentient.

It was a really interesting book to listen to. I’ve read and listened to other books but this was a bit of a different angle I never thought about.

intlectually stimulating eye opening reads like a novel

eye opening in the subtle beginnings of trans humanism that has opened the slippery slope to the acceptance of transhumanism by both the left, right, Christian and secular individual

Left Feeling Gaslit by Theocracy

Grayson Quay’s The Transhumanist Temptation presents itself as a critique of AI and bioengineering but is actually a sweeping condemnation of modern liberal society. The author uses transhumanism as a springboard to attack reproductive rights, LGBTQ+ equality, secularism, and cultural pluralism. He advocates a return to a rigid, Catholic natural-law moral order that would deeply marginalize anyone outside of conservative, heterosexual, white Christian norms.”
If you’re pro-choice, affirm same-sex marriage, or support racial and religious inclusion, you’ll likely find the book alienating and ideologically aggressive. Quay frames liberal democracy not as flawed but as inherently doomed—and sees inclusivity as decay, not progress.

The audiobook, read by the author himself, is delivered at a noticeably accelerated pace—faster than typical spoken-word narration. Instead of enhancing urgency, the speed can come off as pushy, almost like a moralizing sales pitch. It left me feeling less engaged and more like I was being cornered by someone with an agenda, rather than invited into genuine reflection or dialogue.
