I have to agree with CurtAdams.
Church of Extropy = too much explaining to do
Church of the Future = head in clouds
Church of the Promise to Come = same as current religions
"Church of Human Potential"
sounds good. Simple. Says what it does. Does what it says.
It also lets other post/transhumanists groups deal with it without
directly dealing with the extropian philosophy.
