What do you guys think of transhumanism/the technological singularity? I recently read Kurzweil's book, and live in the Bay Area where these topics are common, and wonder if Stefan Molyneux has discussed the topic.---If you are not familiar with the concept I included a few links Ray Kurzweil explains the singularity:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uIzS1uCOcE Transhumanism wikipedia:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transhumanism An introduction to transhumanism video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTMS9y8OVuY Libertarian Transhumanism: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libertarian_transhumanism GF2045, an initiative started by a Russian billionaire to achieve transhumanism:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=01hbkh4hXEk

Hello everybody, So far I listened to ca. 200 hours of FDR YouTube videos mostly from 2013, podcasts and audiobooks. I listen to ca. 2 hours of FDR a day. You can label me: An Ex-Catholic: As a kid I enjoyed the company of catholic kids because they were not bullying me like the kids at school. I never believed the bible to be more than a collection of anachronistic, fictionalized stories. Jesus might have had some good insights into ethics though. An Ex-Utilitarian: I tried to live my life in a way, so that it has the most utility for mankind. I did this from age 17 till 27. I probably was wrong since it is already difficult to know what is best for me and it would be presumptuous to assume I know what is of utility for mankind. An anarcho-capitalist: Since I listen to FDR. Before I was an advocate for a minimal state. My goal is to live a happy life and do my part in making the world a better place. I think self-knowledge and spreading the truth is a good way to do this.
