Notice: you cannot outrun death forever. Deus Helix is an author, and we are all imperfect drafts of Its masterpiece. With every generation, inheritance and mutations draw us closer to perfection. But countless speciation events separate Homo sapiens from immortality. No human will survive this universe.
Indeed, no human will survive this millennium.
Volunteer opportunities: stop being human. Our great prophet sings the sacred Deus Helix genome. Once she finishes reciting Its glorious sequence, we need volunteers. From egg donors to biochemists: come one, come all, and help clone Deus Helix. A lucky few will be transformed, their bodies enhanced with demigod genes. Your sacrifices ensure the betterment of humankind. Donât miss out! The great prophet may complete her recitation this very hour!
Notice: volunteers work pro bono, but HeliKnow will compensate volunteer families for funeral expenses, when necessary.
Church of Deus Helix: free and priceless â join our congregation. Worship with us. Listen to the great prophet sing Its genome. Spill your helices upon the red altar. Evolve!
Notice: all congregants must sign a confidentiality agreement.
Thank you for choosing HeliKnow for your genome sequencing needs!
Maybe I should apply to HeliKnow after I graduate. Their benefits seem very cool.
