The Fear Of Technological Unemployment
No one should be afraid of technological unemployment so try to relax a bit and try to catch your breath. I am going to cover a number of topics that will help you understand why you need not fear advanced technologies. So relax, take it easy, and enjoy the ride. Unemployment: I know that as of today, a good part of the world has issues with employment. A number of countries / societies have issues with enough well paying full time jobs. Another issue is people are working multiple part time jobs just to survive or even worse no jobs at all are available. These facts have nothing to do…

Over 1,000 Kids Will Indeed Be Taught That Death is Wrong – The Rational Argumentator
Author: Gennady Stolyarov II At least 1,029 children in at least 14 countries will be taught that death is wrong as a result of the successful provision of Death is Wrong books to 50 longevity activists throughout the world. On August 7, 2014, the last book shipment, free for all recipients, was made, paid for by the funds raised through the Indiegogo campaign I ran in coordination with the Movement for Indefinite Life Extension (MILE) from February 22 through April 23, 2014. (Read Eric Schulke’s earlier article about the success of the fundraiser and the tremendous efforts and publicity that made it possible.) While some of my critics, such as…

AMTV: Google To Form Transhuman Utopia
This video is from Christopher Greene of AMTV, it addresses the fear of Google and Transhumanism taking over the internet and the military industrial complex. I have to admit that AMTV is a guilty pleasure, that normally I would avoid. Fear, which is a large part of what AMTV is, will always lead to hate, it is just the nature of things. Still Christopher Greene will make some solid points from time to time. Personally, I love the idea of drones providing internet access, especially if it can be done at no or low cost. It puts people who are outside of the information highway, into the game. More information and more information coming…

Fear and Loathing in Transhumanism
There is a sense of paranoia seething in some areas of “traditional” Transhumanism. There is the smell of change in the air and some people do not like it one little bit. So, what is the change and why is it causing problems? To illustrate, let’s go back almost exactly twenty years to the early days of the Net. Back then very few people outside of the technical elite even knew that the “Internet” existed, let alone what it was. That self selected elite had their own culture, their own in-jokes and their own sense of idealism and freedom in what they saw as uncorrupted cyberspace, along with a utopian…

New Reptoid Illuminati Plot: The Transhumanism Council
Author: Amon Twyman Foreword: Sorry to disappoint after such a blatant click-bait title, but you will find no alien lizard people seeking to rule the world here. What you will find is news of regular people who believe that society and the human condition can be improved through technology, cooperating to help each other and spread our ideas. Of course, if you’re the kind of person who believes in New World Order conspiracies then you know that I * would* say that, wouldn’t I? 😉 I am pleased to announce the launch of a new organization, the Transhumanism (H+) Council, which has formed to facilitate cooperation and good relations between…

Inventions and Discoveries Out of Time – What might still be missing?
Did you know that Magnesium Diboride (MgB2) was first synthesized in 1953 and that it was discovered that it superconducts at a temperature of 39K in 2001? So what you might think. It’s just an obscure compound of little interest. However, it could have been made, and this property discovered, over 100 years ago. The fact that up until the 1980s the temperature record holder for any superconducting material was about half that of MgB2 makes it rather interesting. Something rather important to science was missed for decades. What else has been overlooked? Well, in the superconductor arena the biggie was the discovery in the 1980s of the Yttrium Barium…

The Transhumanist Declaration 2.0
This was the winner of the competition for a new declaration that was held by Transhumanity. As such it is currently the definition adopted by Zero State. It is shorter than those it was based upon with many of the negative caveats concerning its dangers condensed into a single point. Humanity stands to be profoundly affected by science and technology in the future. We assert the desire ability of transcending human limitations by overcoming aging, enhancing cognition, abolishing involuntary suffering, and expanding beyond Earth. We intend to become more than Human. The single defining factor of Transhumanism that separates it from all previous philosophies is the proposed use of…

Time and Punishment
Author : Armand Vespertine An article by Rebecca Roache has gained some notoriety among futurist circles recently. In this article Roache speculates on how anticipated technologies like life extension, mind uploading and Human modification might be used to punish criminals. The main source of controversy has been that the tone of the original article made it seem that Roache was in favour of using advanced technology to torture prisoners in ways that were never before possible. Roache has since insisted that the article is merely speculation and that she does not necessarily support any of the penal methods she discusses. Regardless of Roache’s intent, I believe that the outrage the article…
