An embedded danger in transhumanism is the self-centered epistemology.

520 |a An embedded danger in transhumanism is the self-centered epistemology. The first-person perspective in the act of knowing, although it is unnecessary in principle, has brought about the first and only perspective on the act of being. An alternative-robust epistemology that reinstates the finitude of the self and incorporates a holistic vision of being is needed. This article proposes a Korean theological epistemology, the theology of xiang, coined and proposed by Heup Young Kim. The proposal will contribute to situating transhumanism and its technological progress in light of the community of beings rather than in light of isolated islands of individuals.
