But that mystical monism adds much to the Eden story. You're sort of changing the topic or you'd replace the apparent theology of the myth's authors with your theology. I do that too, by building transhumanism on what I think is the myth's implicit Gnostic criticism of theism.

The big question for me is the one of humanism, since that's what unites the Epic of Gilgamesh and the Garden of Eden myth. What should our attitude be towards progressive civilization?
