      ab: In this article, I offer a background to digital theology and its methodology, exploring especially aspects of transhumanism and metaphysical enquiry. The article moves on to engage with several articles given at the Science and Religion Forum at Birmingham in 2022, especially the Gowland Lecture given by Professor Niels Gregersen and the Peacocke Lecture by Andrew Jackson. Both offer a metaphysical approach to information linked closely to the concept of Logos drawn from the Prologue of John—Jackson focusing on Maximus the Confessor's exploration of phylogenetic logoi; Gregersen on a further development of "Deep Incarnation" through the title "God with Clay" drawn from Bonaventure. The article extends this engagement with John by querying the model of incarnation in "deep incarnation" but building on the Logos/logoi to set out some initial building blocks for an alternative metaphysics of information.
