Cybergnosticism

From Gothpoodle

This is the belief that that the physical world is impure or inefficient, and that existence in the form of “pure information” is better and should be pursued. Cybergnostics often use brain implants, and have been known to modify their bodies and those of their children to reduce temptations of the flesh. Cybergnostic transhumanists sometimes practice destructive uploading. There are many cybergnostic cults, some with thousands of members. For example, the Neo-Gnostics pursue purity of the body as the route to a pure soul, genefixing their children to reduce tendencies toward promiscuity and gluttony.
