Why not? I would like some parts of ours to evolve further. 5 fingers? fuck that, gimme 8 so I can type easier. Our eyes? Do you know how shitty our eyes are compared to other animals? It's cause they were evolved to work perfectly under water, then when we started walking on land we had to evolve it from that so it never got perfect. We can't see things right in front of our noses, we cant see things 500 meters away in detail, we can't even see in the night which fucking sucks.  Evolve that shit to the max level and then I'll be satisfied. |

I'm not at all interested in living forever but If we could extend life for another 100 years or so I'd be very happy with that. Life seems to be very fast and spending more times with my loved ones would be priceless IMO.
I heard that google had recently invested in a company that experiments with immortality and how to obtain it. Looking at google, they haven't failed with much lately.  |

There are many things happening with science and technology, we are destroying freedom with technology. Unless we all can can stand up up to against our goverments, are kids are gonna learn to accpet the gov bullies.
I agree with you "we are destroying freedom with technology" but if not democratic governments, then the corporate bad guys, terrorists, etc could take over government and everything could be put to a lot of bad things happen |

Idk about you people but I for one can't wait for transhumanism. And there's also a smallish chance that some people alive today will be around when we learn to stop aging, who wouldn't want that?
True transhumanism does not come from external mechanics, it comes from within. Love is what we're looking for, not machines. |

I don't understand people who don't want to stop aging. It makes no sense to me. Some guy in his 30s may say now that he wouldn't like to live forever, well, wait till you're 70. Aging is a disease, it's just one that we don't know how to cure yet.
And hey, if you get bored of life at 200 years old, you'd be free to just kill yourself. That doesn't mean everyone should die because of some weird rationalization, or worse, religion.
If we stopped aging, people would actually start caring about the environment, because it'd no longer be someone else's problem, it'd be YOUR problem.
And the overpopulation argument is also bullcrap. If people knew they wouldn't age, maybe they wouldn't pump out babies like it's their job. Richer people already have less babies than the poor. The world isn't even close to being overpopulated yet, either, it's just the distribution of wealth that's a problem. And also in the future, synthetic food will be available, and we will start to colonize other planets, etc...
Saying that stopping aging would be bad because of overpopulation is like saying curing cancer would be a bad thing, because too many people would survive!

I think humans still evolve but doesn't have much impact like in the past because of our technology. I don't think we need to evolve further what for. I think we are at peak now as an organism. What we need is to further advance our technology.

Unless you change the human nature, which is not happening anytime soon, things will not change, no matter what you do, it's in our human nature to be stupid, greedy, and selfish and systems like capitalism exploit the human nature very well, there is enough resources on earth to make EVERYONE live a decent life, yet the system is built to make a 1% super rich elit a 9% rich, a 20% okish, and the rest poor. |

That's a bit of paradox, since it's also in human nature to care for others, and helping people in need makes us feel good. At the same time we're greedy and selfish and constantly want more. If we just stopped wanting more and would settle with having just enough, the world would be a much better place. One cannot do everything, but everyone can do something. |

True transhumanism does not come from external mechanics, it comes from within. Love is what we're looking for, not machines. Aren't machines better? Wouldn't you want to be a robot or hybrid (and look like Iron man)? |

No since it moves so slow. We can notice adaptations though like in birds and dogs but only by studying them. |
