Prometheism

Arktos, 2020
Prometheus plus theism: Jorjani's manifesto religion of technological revolt, offering metaphysics, ethics, and politics for those who would spearhead an evolutionary revolution past the end of humanity, history, and reality.
Documented

The manifesto

Prometheism (Arktos, 2020) codifies the program: embrace a Promethean ethos before the Singularity, treat creation as defiance, and build a theology of technology where the light-bringer's fire is the same force driving evolution, genius, and progress. The fiction cycle around it, Psychotron, Uber Man, Promethean Pirate, Satanaeon, dramatizes the same revolt as cosmic espionage.

Assessment: Documented: the texts, the program, the opening declaration in the author's words.
Stories

Lucifer as entropy

The cosmology underneath: the fall of Lucifer is the birth of intelligence; creation is deviation, not design; the goddess of acceleration devours her own offspring to keep evolution moving. Lucretius's clinamen, the atomic swerve, is the metaphysical hinge.

Assessment: Stories: an old myth in new circuitry, as its sympathetic critics say. The wiring is Zoroastrian; the hardware is quantum.
Interesting claims

The mandate problem

The caution the concept's own readers raise: words like Prometheus, destiny, superhuman, and apocalypse carry psychic force that can bypass judgment, and a philosophy of seizing power has to answer who holds it. Jorjani's AltRight-era essay, quoted in federal court, is why the question is not rhetorical.

Assessment: Interesting: mystery into mandate is the archive's standing warning, and this is its clearest modern specimen.

Worth asking

Who writes a theology whose god is the rebel, and what do its services look like?
