Paloma Hernández: «Sin el Creador, la criatura desaparece»
In her book De la muerte de Dios a la muerte del hombre, published by Sekotia, Paloma Hernández examines how modern technologies like artificial intelligence, genetic engineering, and augmentation technologies challenge the definition of humanity. Hernández argues that the attempt to overcome pain, aging, and death through these means treats human nature as a technical defect that requires correction.
Hernández suggests that breaking the connection with God erodes the foundation of human dignity. She proposes that instead of seeking biotechnological self-salvation, people should embrace the Christian view of the person as a vulnerable, physical, and free creature. According to the author, this perspective calls individuals toward love, transcendence, and communion with God rather than the attempt to manufacture themselves.
