they didn't REALLY speak english. they had universal translators so that as long as you had your badge on, you could understand whatever someone was saying.

Yeah you´re right, I remember now xd



But on to something diffent and I know I´m going to break my own rule with this one......

I just came up with a pretty scary future conflict that might arise...

Between the religious non-enhanced humans and the enhanced humans, because first I found this question on a transhumanist blogg:

Quote:
If man was created in God’s image, would it be blasphemous for people to radically alter their body and brain as it becomes technologically possible, through genetic engineering or nanotechnology?
site

Then I found this:

Quote:
Only 29.4 percent of Americans believe nanotechnology is "morally acceptable," compared with 62.7 percent in Germany and 72.1 percent in France. The difference has to do with religion, says a University of Wisconsin professor: Americans believe nanotech researchers are "playing God" by trying to extend humans' capabilities. With nanotech poised to give sensation to artificial skin, cure brain cancer and even make your blood cells intelligent, you could see a gulf between European post-humans and American ortho-humans in a few decades if these views translate into law.
site

That s**t freaks me out...... alot.

I do not want to be a cyborg and have a EMP explode over my head...

Any thoughts about this?

I think its the same as anything, it should be in moderation. I dont want lots of artificial things in my body if i can avoid it, so i probably wouldnt want intelligent blood cells if my immune system works ok naturally. Sensation for artificial skin sounds awesome though and would be a huge advantage for people with artificial limbs. And im not going to say no to a cure for brain cancer xd

it would be interesting to see the difference between european posthumans and american orthohumans though. It would be cool because you could use the american orthohumans as your control group and see if the quality of life is actually improved by technology in the european posthumans mrgreen

How come? Do you think they'll change their minds half way through xd they probably would, once they all start dying of brain cancer

Well what people don´t have they want, so I think their will be war...

And nano machines have the possibilities to cure all types of cancer 3nodding

Ah true. But maybe it'll be like a technology race, instead of an arms race, to get the best medical technology so you can dominate the market xd




But it'll probably be nuclear >.<

Not nuclear because it destroys structures and thats bad it´s much smarter to kill non-enhanced humans with bioweapons and EMP on the enhanced humans. 3nodding
