Hmm, the closest thing to an extropian theology would probably be
Tipler's Omega Point theory, which however is in serious trouble now
due to the results suggesting an open universe (but at least it is a
theology falsifiable by science). Teilhard de Chardin might be seen as
a similar attempt from the other side, although in his case his
paleontology is very dated.
