Why not talk about some of these values and emotions that are being erased from humanity and which can never be conveyed by either a humanoid robot or an "enhanced" cyborg whose brain is no longer his own? I think it is an extremely important discussion. Proceed. Right.

People with a functioning brain and an open eye might have realised by now that modernism is crushing human spirituality with the weight of a billion television sets. Doug ^ pointed out the degeneration of real human "emotion" - that which is labeled emotive in current times is usually full of shallow falsities and ideological fallacies. Your dime-a-dozen 'emotive' rock band may be degenerate and empty, but where do we draw the line? Will it be before or after having 'loving relationships' with robots? Sounds like ideological decay - perhaps we need to reassess our values here. www.corrupt.org Does this really surprise anyone?

What we are seeing is the gradual transformation of machines into humanoid robots and from the other direction, the transhumanist transformation of human beings into humanoid cyborgs. This is a convergence that was kicked off by the very fascist Converging Technologies for Improving Human Performance pushed by Newt Gingrich and signed into law by Bush in the wake and commotion of 9/11. The evil agenda is steam-rolling along and nobody is stopping it, so far. Absolutely Doug.

It wasn't enough that we bone inflated plastic bags with holes in them. Now we're aiming at satisfying our needs with mechanical robots. The emotional detachment between human beings will continue, as we direct our needs and desires within an exclusively technological reality. But what's even more interesting in this context is the question of what it means to be a human being... As Philip K. Dick pointed out, we've increasingly created a society that breeds mechanical, cold people who define themselves according to which buttons they push to earn money. Maybe the real controversy in this news item is not about us having sex with robots--who said we are not becoming living robots ourselves? - www.corrupt.org Great.
