Some Questions for the TransHumanist...
1: What happens if you conquer longevity problems i.e the aging process, but don't find a suitable host planet in time, do we enforce mandatory sterilisation of women?
2: If we get to a point in our future when the developed world has to follow suit with China and limit babies being born, How do we stop illegal pregnancy and baby abandonment? How much will a one- per- lifespan baby license cost? Will the poor be able to obtain the latest cognitive implant or artificial neuron capacitor, or will we see the rich being the brightest and the poor being the uneducated? Do you care?
3: Surely the point of reproduction is to fulfill a human need to recreate, rear, and bond with your children. So why do you want us to stop nature and nurture?
4: Why do you want us to forget that we are all a culmination of thousands of centuries of learnt knowledge? No one man possesses all knowledge, or is it that we will live in a collective mind like the BORG? A blend of one mind, the internet and one religion, one voice, one huge totalitarian mess!
5: Finally, Why do you hate being human? Is it because, due to your egg-shaped heads, nerdy glasses, and intelligence, you were often bullied at school, but found your true destiny in a world run by the same as you/?
To be human is to be proud, to be robot is to be 10010111010001101000!!! Understand??!!!
