==Beliefs==
Transhumanists believe in the enhancing of the human to transcend the human. That base idea is why it is called Transhumanism. Transhumanism very much though can not be said to be [[File:Anti-Humanism.png]] {{PHB|Anti-Humanism|Anti-Humanist}} or [[File:POSTHUMANISMICON.png]] [[Post-Humanism|Post-Humanist]] as its central goal is the improving of the human condition and not the abolition or destruction of the human.
 
Improving of the human (condition) for Transhumanism can be done through many ways. [[File:Smol biotranshumanism.png]] Biological improvement is one of these as is also mechanical improvement.

===Schools of Thought===
====[[File:Extropy.png]] Extropianism====
Extropianism, also referred to as the philosophy of extropy, is an "evolving framework of values and standards for continuously improving the human condition". Extropians believe that advances in science and technology will some day let people live indefinitely. An extropian may wish to contribute to this goal, e.g. by doing research and development or by volunteering to test new technology.
 
 
====[[File:RelH+icon.png]] Religious Transhumanism====
'''Religious Transhumanism, or f+ (faith+)''' is a school of thought that seeks to combine religious belief with transhumanist characters. Many different religious believers apply this differently, on the small scale of chasing traditionally religious ideas such as immortality to cults directly implementing transhuman characteristics into their belief, such as Raëlism.
Line 112 ⟶ 113:
Religious thinkers criticized the philosophy of transhumanism as offering no eternal truths or relationship with the divine, to which transhumanists say that is a fatal failure to understand the content of Transhumanist philosophy.
 
 
===Regional Variants===
====[[File:ChrH+icon.png]] Christian Transhumanism [[File:ChrH+iconalt.png]]====
'''Christian Transhumanism (✞+ or C+)''' believes that intentional use of technology can empower our growth of identity as made in the image of God. It believes in progress along every dimension such as social, technological and spiritual, and that God's mission involves the transformation and renewal of humanity to defeat problems such as hunger, oppression and even death.
 
Many people believe that this is contradictory. They cite that any attempt to merge Transhumanism with Christianity is misguided, as transhumanism is materialistic and rejects the idea of sin.
==Personality and Behaviour==
Transhumanism is characterized as a stereotypical robot depicted in various medias with various examples of the behaviours:
