Meghan O'Gieblyn lost her faith—and found transhumanism. Then she realized that those two things weren't quite as far apart as she first believed.

Important thought:
- The loss of faith is a loss of narrative, of history. Transhumanism, like Christianity, is the embrace of history's dramatic significance.
