Always funny to see what outsiders (in this case a bunch of students
from the University of Texas at Austin) think of transhumanism...
Perhaps the Textropians should kick their ass ;-)

Quote:
"Our culture must not allow the evolution of humans into a new species
by transhumanistic activists seeking the improvement of the human
condition. If we do, the human condition will only suffer. The
Socioeconomic Impact of transhumanism will be substancial. The high cost
of the technologies allow only a privaleged few to take advantage of it,
which will create a social divide between an elite and an
underprivaleged class and do dangerous damage to human solidarity".
Etc.
