Trans-Spirit is a Transhumanist research program into religion and spirituality. It seeks to understand religion and spirituality in terms of cognitive science and evolutionary psychology, and to project the future of religion and spirituality in the dawning Transhuman era.

In keeping with the Transhumanist spirit of free inquiry, the Trans-Spirit research program and this discussion group will not proselytize. Trans-Spirit researchers will not engage in theological or metaphysical disputes with the proponents of any religion. Rather, Trans-Spirit seeks to cooperate with people of religious and spiritual orientations who wish to better understand the phenomena associated with those pursuits.
