This is Part 3 of a three-part series between UK Column and Prof Gloria Moss. In Part 1, Prof Diane Rasmussen McAdie spoke with her about the higher education crisis that has recently unfolded in the UK and across the West. In Part 2, Gloria and Ben Rubin biological, psychological and visuospatial differences between the sexes as evidenced by Gloria’s extensive research into the topic.
Part 3 took a dark but necessary turn: the exploration of the evil, transhumanist agenda that has existed within human societies for centuries, which appears to be accelerating in the current age due to the availability of technologies that can enable humans to become part machine. Following is an edited version of the notes that Gloria provided to UK Column, which are essential to share along with the discussion due to the alarming, perhaps unbelievable, points explored.
The Origins of Transhumanism
Transhumanism starts from the presumption that man is not perfect. We chart here the broad chronology of this idea, starting with two ancient sources. The Bible’s Book of Revelations 13:18 states that Man has the Mark of the Beast: 666. In modern-day terms, the carbon atom that Man is made from (Man being a carbon-based lifeform) is made up of six protons, six electrons, and six neutrons: 666.
According to The Gnostics’ The Secret Gospel of John, from the 2nd century AD, the Light Source created 10 Aeons who created ‘Kindness’ which created the 1st perfect human. The Light Source then created the ‘4 Illuminates’, who created the 12 Eternal Dimensions. One of the 12 Dimensions, Sofia, became unbalanced, and was expelled into a dark dimension, becoming paranoid, egotistical, and aggressive. The Demiurge force in Sofia then made a lower energy dark creation, the material universe, and also created a hierarchy of controlling forces, or rulers, Archons. The Demiurge and the Archons attempted to create a slave worker version of the human created by the Light Source. These slave workers could be benevolent or psychopathic.
The higher dimensional force retaliated by imbuing these slave workers with thinking and spiritual power and the Archons, their rulers, then used diverse means to control and suppress them: (a) false religious beliefs, (b) eradication of higher knowledge in all subjects, (c) mindless entertainment, and (d) genetic manipulation.
Gnostic thinking regarding the composition of the human population said that
By way of a footnote to this, it is worth noting that research shows males to be more invested in depicting machines than females, and more vested in having distant relationships with people than females. So may this lead them to be more easily co-opted by the Counterfeit Spirits in developing the Transhuman? Here is the evidence for these two statements about males and females.
Love Affair with Machines
From Gloria’s earlier research on gender, sex, and drawings/paintings (see her book Gender, Design and Marketing), we learn that boys are vastly more interested in depicting violence than females. Three landmark studies show this:
- Ballard, 1912: drawings of 20,000 London children aged 6-10: > 20% of boys’ drawings were of ships, and 9% of girls’.
- McCarty, 1924: looked at 31,000 drawings of children ages 4-8. 100% of boys depicted vehicles and tools, as opposed to 22% of girls.
- Hargreaves, 1977: highly significant difference in the extent to which boys and girls drew mechanical objects.
Distal Relationships with People
In the literature on leadership, men are widely documented as having a preference for a transactional style of leadership over transformational leadership. This preference is manifested in the style that they like to use over others, and the style that they prefer to have exercised over themselves. Transactional leadership views leadership as a series of transactions with little contact with followers, hence the competence of ‘management by exception’, or only intervening when things go wrong).
Skipping Several Centuries
Transhumanism represents the Masonic aim of assisting humanity in evolving to merge with a ‘cosmic consciousness’. A similar idea emerged from the Fabians. Are they continuing the work of the Archons?
When Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein in 1918, she was in Switzerland with Lord Byron, whose father was a Freemason. Was her novel a critique of the merger of the human and the artificial?
H. G. Wells (1866-1946) was a Fabian and the author of 1940’s The New World Order, a non-fiction work which outlines plans for a socialist one world government. It includes a human rights declaration which served as the basis for the United Nations’ ‘Universal Declaration of Human Rights’. Wells may have been one of the first people thinking about genetic modification and transhumanism. His 1896 book The Island of Dr. Moreau is about a mad scientist creating human-animal hybrids.
Aldous Huxley’s 1932 dystopian novel Brave New World is a must-read for anyone attempting to understand the transhumanist agenda. Did he and fellow Fabian Society member George Orwell merely fictionalise the globalist transhumanist plans of their fellow Fabians? Aldous Huxley studied at Eton College and Oxford University. He met Bertrand Russell at Oxford, and entered the Fabian Society through him. Aldous Huxley tutored George Orwell at Eton, and Orwell’s novel 1984 was published in 1949.
Let’s briefly consider thinking on gender, before focusing more exclusively on transhumanism, a term coined in 1950 by Julian Huxley in his book New Bottles for New Wine.
Gender
Simone de Beauvoir’s book The Second Sex (1949) stated: “One is not born but becomes a woman”. Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre were advocates of the Front de libération des Pédophiles (FLIP).
Dr John Money’s theories about ‘gender’ led to transgender ideology. He stated that biology does not matter in relation to gender and that people are born ‘gender-neutral’. He was a public supporter of paedophilia and incest and a deviant child abuser. References to Dr Money can be found in Richard House’s review of Dr Miriam Grossman’s book Lost in Trans Nation: A Child Psychiatrist’s Guide Out of the Madness.
From questioning the validity of biological sex, and the formulation of Transgender Ideology and Practice (TGIP), it is a small stretch to then move to Transhumanism, as we can see from the writings of Martine (formerly Martin) Rothblatt in 1996’s The Apartheid of Sex: A Manifesto on the Freedom of Gender: “The genitals don’t determine your sex … You can choose … whichever gender you want … There is a gender fluidity that crosses the entire continuum from male to female … Separate male and female genders is a constructed fiction”.
Rothblatt wrote in 2011’s From Transgender to Transhuman: A Manifesto on the Freedom of Form: “in transcending biology, technology offers an explosion of sexual identities … [and] human identities … [leading to] transhumanism … [and] hybrid human-computer species”.
TGIP is estimated to be worth $1.9 billion by 2032. Figures at London’s Tavistock Gender Identity Disorder Service for gender-affirming care show that in 2009–10, there were 77 patients, but by 2021–2022, the number had exploded by 4,555% to 3,585. In 2013, the DSM-5 estimated the rate of adult ‘gender dysphoria’ (the term that replaced ‘Gender Identity Disorder’, or GID) to be between just 0.002 and 0.014%, or 14 people per 1000.
Beyond transgenderism, we are seeing reports of children being allowed to identify as animals in the UK, citing ‘species dysphoria’ as the reason.
Let us focus now on transhumanistic thinking, which is an obviously unfortunate progression from transgender thinking.
Transhumanism
In 1962, Aldous Huxley gave a talk at Berkeley called ‘The Ultimate Revolution — A Blueprint to Enslave the Masses’. According to Huxley, all revolutions have aimed at changing the environment to change the individual. By modifying the surroundings, you affect the human being. He said that we can contemplate the ultimate, final revolution, where Man can act directly on the mind-body of fellow Man in a non-violent way. This was important in his view, since if you are going to control populations for any length of time, you need some measure of consent so that people “love their servitude”.
He referred to Orwell’s 1984, showing a future society where control is exercised by violent control over mind and body. He stated that scientific dictatorships of the future will be closer to the pattern of Brave New World because it is “more efficient”. You are likely to have a much more lasting and controlled society than in the Orwell-type society. Dictators will become more interested in the type of techniques employed in Brave New World, and this will be the ultimate revolution. He refers to this as “scientific dictatorship”. Huxley spoke of techniques for inducing consent and people loving their servitude, including Pavlovian conditioning as well as hypnosis.
Huxley also discussed how human populations can be categorised according to their suggestability. The non-suggestible preserve us from dictatorship. Any demagogue who can organise the 20% of suggestible people can overturn their government.
The 2005 establishment of the Machine Intelligence Research Institute (MIRI), formerly the Singularity Institute for Artificial Intelligence), is significant. Ray Kurzweil, a head of engineering at Google and the modern prophet of transhumanism, who believes that we are partly organic tissue and partly mechanical parts, a merger of biology and technology, has served as one of the directors of MIRI. MIRI’s advisory board also includes Oxford philosopher and leader of the transhumanist movement.
In 1998, Dr Nick Bostrom, Swedish philosopher at Oxford University, wrote about personality pills and superintelligent machines. He co-founded the World Transhumanist Association, now called Humanity+.
Peter Thiel, who co-founded PayPal and Palantir Technologies, has many government contracts. In June 2025, he was asked in an interview whether he thought the human race should survive during a public discussion on artificial intelligence and transhumanism, and he eventually replied, “Yes… but —”.
Yuval Noah Harari’s 2015 Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow describes how humans have survived starvation, plagues, and wars, and how the next stage beckons:
Having reduced mortality from starvation, disease and violence, we will now aim to overcome old age and even death itself. Having saved people from abject misery, we will now aim to make them positively happy. And having raised humanity above the beastly level of survival struggles, we will now aim to upgrade humans into gods, and turn Homo sapiens into Homo deus., ie divinity … will be necessary to change our biochemistry and re-engineer our bodies and minds … the second great project of the twenty-first century — to ensure global happiness — will involve re-engineering Homo sapiens so that it can enjoy everlasting pleasure.
He described death as a “technical problem”. And, he said that in seeking bliss and immortality humans are in fact trying to upgrade themselves into gods. Not just because these are divine qualities, but because in order to overcome old age and misery, humans will first have to acquire godlike control of their own biological substratum. The upgrading of humans into gods may follow any of three paths: biological engineering, cyborg engineering, and the engineering of non-organic beings. Using the Cyborg route, he said, “Cyborg engineering will go a step further, merging the organic body with nonorganic devices such as bionic hands, artificial eyes, or millions of nano-robots that will navigate our bloodstream, diagnose problems and repair damage”. With the engineering of non-organic beings, neural networks will be replaced by intelligent software, which could surf both the virtual and non-virtual worlds, free from the limitations of organic chemistry.
His assumptions:
- Famines and plagues were all natural, and not the product of systems and initiatives that could have undermined human beings.
- Homo sapiens is part of an evolutionary process.
- Health could be ensured by not disallowing certain treatment protocols and by reforming mainstream medicine.
Elon Musk established Neuralink in 2016. Years ago, he said that Neurolink could predict what your brain is thinking and could write on your brain. It uses brain computer-interface technology (BCI).
Klaus Schwab’s 2017 book The Fourth Industrial Revolution speaks of the fusion between biological and technological systems to create a whole new world.
Petra Desutter’s 2018 TED talk, ‘Telebabies’, describes Aldous Huxley as a “visionary” since he foresaw that technological reproduction would be possible rather than “old-fashioned reproduction”. Desutter said that although Brave New World was written in 1932, this future is happening now. She referred to Professor of Bioethics Julian Sanulescu, as a “very smart guy”; he describes genetic manipulation/enhancement of babies as “the moral duty”. She stated that it will be possible to create a child using DNA from three or four people. According to her, “old-fashioned fertilisation” is against the new science of homosexual genetic fertilisation, facilitated by stem cell technology; this also facilitates “rainbow families”. She discussed “gene editing” and “taking over our own evolution”, equivalent to transhumanism. If AI wants to take over, we will need to enhance our genes. The miostatin gene could be affected that would allow people to manipulate muscle mass. She mentioned the film Gattaca in which designer babies are created to order. She stated that pregnancy outside of the uterus is not possible yet.
The Wellcome Trust is the UK’s largest provider of non-governmental funding for scientific research. It has £16 billion of funding to spend by 2032 “to advance scientific discovery and take on the world’s most urgent health issues”. It is publishing many books to demonise conventional birth and motherhood. These include 2021’s After the Storm: Postnatal Depression and the Utter Weirdness of New Motherhood by Emma Unsworth, which refers to the “alienation, desperation and exhaustion” after birth. Eve: The Disobedient Future of Birth, by Claire Horn (2023), talks about the “tyranny of biology”, saying the “real tyranny is our inability to relinquish archaic ideas of sex and gender”, the view that there are only two sexes is “so entrenched”, and “the idea that artificial wombs could be used to redress gendered inequity in reproductive labour is compelling”.
At the 2022 meeting of the World Economic Forum, Nokia CEO Pekka Lundmark publicly declared that by 2030, the most common interface of smartphone technology will be “built directly” into the physical body and that, by then, cellphones will be virtually obsolete.
University of Toronto Professor Emeritus Sir Geoffrey Hinton is a British-Canadian computer scientist, cognitive scientist, and cognitive psychologist known as “the Godfather of AI” for his work on artificial neural networks while working at the Google Brain project between 2013-2023. In 2023, Hinton resigned from Google, citing concerns about the risks of AI technology, including the potential for advanced AI systems to develop goals that are not aligned with human values. He has estimated a 10% to 20% risk that AI could contribute to human extinction within the next 30 years. He won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 2024. In his acceptance speech, he spoke of the need for forceful attention from governments and international organizations” towards “research on how to prevent these new beings from wanting to take control”.

According to ‘Epstein’s Secret Investments in AI Human Bio-Engineering for Profitable Population Control‘, Epstein was not only involved in trafficking. He was funding AI-related research between 1998 and 2002, with Harvard receiving $200,000 from him. This was to support the research of Stephen Kosslyn, an expert in the field of psychology and AI, integrating the two with the understanding that both use ‘imagery’ powerfully. A report from Harvard University shows that Kosslyn had known Epstein for about nine years and supported his application as a visiting fellow in the department of psychology in September 2005. Epstein had no academic credentials.
The article ‘6G Rollout: The User as Programmable Substrate’ explores the link between 6G and transhumanism. It quotes James Martinez, media ecologist and the last living original MKULTRA whistleblower, who served on the Board of Advisors for the Freedom of Thought Foundation in 1994:
With the advent of 6G, thoughts will be trackable, emotional states measurable, and decisions will be predictable and influenced algorithmically. This is not science fiction—culturally this is being framed as a disability aid or commercial convenience, but in media ecology, the interface is ideology. Once we ‘think’ through a machine, our consciousness is redefined by its architecture and thereby ends our divine individual self. Permanently…
J. B. S. Haldane published a book with H. G. Wells and Julian Huxley called Reshaping Man’s Heritage in 1944; it contains transhumanist elements. Haldane, a Communist, also published Daedalus; or, Science and the Future, in 1924. A 2023 talk at Ideas Matter’s ‘The Academy’ Conference featured a talk entitled ‘The First Transhumanist: Haldane’s Daedalus 100 Years on’ by Sandy Starr, which explained the heavy transhumanist element in that work.
