I found this article a quite interesting read. Maybe , in a way , it sheds a bit of light on what is going on today , well partly anyways.
And how some very powerful (or very influential anyway) people think, and what their intentions are for the planet and all of us living here.
Some seem to think that the only way forward is the necessary step of merging biology with technology , to them it is the next evolutionary step for humanity. So I guess in a way , they see themselves as saving humanity (or themselves anyway). To build a better human. ( That kind of sounds familiar doesn't it?)
The real question though is , is this new future enhanced human ... still actually human?
