Genetic invasion: distorting the human future
Are you non-material, or just a programmed brain?

First, read these two quotes from highly regarded academic scientists, to catch the flavor of the genetic revolution:
From Lee Silver, Princeton, molecular biologist and author of Remaking Eden:
“The GenRich—who account for ten percent of the American population—[will] all carry synthetic genes. All aspects of the economy, the media, the entertainment industry, and the knowledge industry are controlled by members of the GenRich class…
“Naturals work as low-paid service providers or as laborers. [Eventually] the GenRich class and the Natural class will become entirely separate species with no ability to crossbreed, and with as much romantic interest in each other as a current human would have for a chimpanzee.
“Many think that it is inherently unfair for some people to have access to technologies that can provide advantages while others, less well-off, are forced to depend on chance alone, [but] American society adheres to the principle that personal liberty and personal fortune are the primary determinants of what individuals are allowed and able to do.
“Indeed, in a society that values individual freedom above all else, it is hard to find any legitimate basis for restricting the use of repro[grammed]-genetics. I will argue [that] the use of reprogenetic technologies is inevitable. [W]hether we like it or not, the global marketplace will reign supreme.”
Here is another gem, from Gregory Stock, former director of the program in Medicine, Technology, and Society at the UCLA School of Medicine:
“Even if half the world’s species were lost [during genetic experiments], enormous diversity would still remain. When those in the distant future look back on this period of history, they will likely see it not as the era when the natural environment was impoverished, but as the age when a plethora of new forms—some biological, some technological, some a combination of the two—burst onto the scene. We best serve ourselves, as well as future generations, by focusing on the short-term consequences of our actions rather than our vague notions about the needs of the distant future.”
One scientist says we might lose half of all species getting where we want to go, genetically speaking, and the other says the process will inevitably be guided by wealth and the free market, thus creating two distinct classes of humans, the higher of which has far superior abilities -and they’ll run things.
Aren’t you thrilled? If you make it through, you may turn out to be half-biological, half-technological.
Plexiglass head, two cameras for eyes, titanium feet. Whatever.
But here’s a question. Suppose scientists could take a tiny sample of tissue from you and thereby produce a perfect clone, down to the last iota, including, of course, your brain.
Would that be you?
A surprising number of people think so. Just as they believe, with their brains frozen at death, they could come alive again when “the science has advanced far enough.”
Other people would say, “Well, the clone of me is not me, but if we could plant my memories in him, he’d be very close.”
All of this presupposes that the physical material of you is you…and there isn’t anything else to add.
I have news. That perfect clone of you is just going to stand there. Or if he moves, he’s going to operate as a machine. Programmed for every twitch.
“Yes, but if his programming is the same as mine, then who can tell the difference? What difference would there be?”
A world of difference.
You being you, wearing a human form, is a far cry from a machine that looks like you being a machine.
Discuss among yourselves. Discuss for a long time, because nothing more than the future of the human race is riding on this.
Perhaps you’ve noticed, in recent years, how the societal fixation on the human body and what it looks like is becoming massive.
From issues of race and gender to cosmetics to clothes to “performance” to medical interventions, it’s all about the person as if he’s already a clone, an android.
For the people with such an obsession, do you really think there is any hesitation about playing genetic roulette, other than official assurances of workability?
Here’s another clue. When they come calling with new genes, and when they insert them, when they use those genes “to make your brain better,” do you think the you that is you, independent of your physical form, is going to adapt?
“Well, I’ll just learn the new system. It’s like moving from a small apartment into a big house. You walk around, you get used to it.”
Really? Understand that the genetic enthusiasts don’t for a second believe there is any you to learn anything. To them, you’re just an operating system, and any system will function smoothly, as it’s directed to.
If wholesale genetic intervention takes hold, there are lots of very unpleasant surprises ahead.
Consider the psychiatric drugs like Zoloft and Paxil. You know, the drugs that scramble neurotransmitters like eggs in a cheap diner, and cause some people to commit suicide or randomly kill others. Now multiply the uncertainty of that effect by a hundred or a thousand, when wholesale genetic changes are enacted.
You were aiming to become the next Mozart? And instead you wound up burning down half the city? Just a glitch in the research. They’ll eventually iron out the problem. Take the long view. Don’t worry, be happy.
The debate comes down to who controls, yes, the philosophy. Not the science, the philosophy. Is each human merely and only a system, or is he non-material, inhabiting a physical form?
We already know what the vast majority of brain researchers and geneticists believe, as well as the governments and corporations and universities and foundations that make important decisions.
Of course, these days, the college faculty department considered to be the least important, the most useless, a mere appendage waiting for those with wisdom to put it out of its misery and kill it off…is the philosophy department.
That leaves us to take up the philosophic argument.
Not Lee Silver at Princeton or Gregory Stock or Bill Gates or George Soros or David Rockefeller or the Pope or Stephen Hawking or Obama or the Clintons or Monsanto or Dow or the Bush family or PBS or FOX or some wackadoodle at Harvard or MIT or UCLA.

This would be very disturbing if we assume these scientists will carve our world up according to their soulless agenda, but that is not how it’s going to go down. There are people born with beautiful, loving souls and some without any soul at all, that is the extant evolutionary schema. The timelines are splitting, the soulless techno-machine heads will live their titanium lives on 3D earth and the rest of us will carry on with a totally different dimensional schema. Just don’t give up your soul and you’ll be fine.
Or… We’ll all choose to live under the three Laws. Any One may choose what They do to Themselves. For more on the three Laws:

Does a religion exist that says that if God did not want it this way, it would still happen? If God disapproves, it will fail. I’m not a church going man, nor is He my invisible friend. If He made it possible and gave man the will, it will happen. Period.
What the researchers are ignoring is the potential for emerging diseases generated from GMOs and genetic manipulation to kill all of mankind . Noam Chomsky of Boston College has stated in an email ( see website , http://www.cancerfraudbadbiotech.com ) that my theories could be of phenomenal importance to the survival of mankind . Read Mass Extinction /SARS for details on the site , and , the Viroid Thermodynamic Theory on the Origin of Life, VTT presented at the U of Guelph circa 1993 states that disease control the rate of evolution . And diseases cause the extinction of out of control species. Genetically altering many things give viruses and bacteria new genes to exchange and create new diseases for which mankind has no immunity .This was explained to Pres. Obama in the open letter on the website. I did receive an email reply from the WH months ago but not posted on the site due to expense of updates. If you want to have a say in the direction of our society and the survival of mankind, it would be in everyone’s interest to help me get the Grand Jury into the fraud blocking the research and get a lot out in the open and people held accountable . Thank you .E.A. Greenhalgh

When discussing brain structures it is somehow never mentioned that
there are neuron masses very similar to the brain in the chest area and in the
abdominal area. It may be that these areas are necessary to the proper understanding
of the brain. Just a thought.
There also seems to be evidence that a number of people have lived with little to no
brain matter. If even one instance of this is fact then all brain theory is out the
window and a new hypothesis of the nature and function of the brain must be
developed.
Excellent point. The problem with these “scientists” is their over whelming self importance and belief in such.
Insightful as always. I’ve wondered for a long time if some of the more intelligent transhumanists see through the whole “download your conciousness into a machine” idea. I can’t make a detailed scientific argument for the reasons why it wouldn’t “be you,” but common sense, the cornerstone so despised by the learned, tells me that it just wouldn’t. It would be convincing copy, but basically just a machine.
On the other hand, the ability to reprogram the winding down of the genetic clock (slower cell renewal) which seems to be programmed into our DNA, combined with cell repair, creation and alteration via Nanotech, seems to be a viable path towards physical immortality.
When I think of these GRIN technologies and man’s coming colonization and exploitation of space, I can’t help but think of the Native Americans puzzling over the strange handful of whitemen living on their shores, little suspecting the complete transformation of their world and the coming genocide. A new world is being born and someday the unwise but very devious conquerors may speak of 95% of the population as some today do of the Native Americans, “They were stupid, resource hogging primitives. They had it coming.”
The founding principle of America is that the governments are instituted to secure the unalienable rights of each man. Government is our servant. A corporation is unlike a natural person. It can live forever. The corporation is created by our servants and has to follow the rules of our servants and needs to pay for the privilege of existence to our servants. Those with genetically engineered traits are no longer human. They should pay for the privilege of their enhancements. I expect that they won’t. They will take over the government and doom you and your descendants. The question is: If you disagree with the NWO, will you be allowed to enhance your offspring?

Great article. Sometimes a paradigm shift is needed for this type of thinking. Years ago I had a NDE, nothing like you read about in the books or see on the documentaries. What it did was, when I came around, got me to question who I was and where “I” existed. I cannot emphasise enough how much this one event totally f##ked up my “understanding” of the world and how it worked. Just for who I am and where I am, I will tell you now it is not in my brain, me bum or me ‘eart. (These organs are important as Mike says above, some fascinating work done by people looking into heart transplants and personality changes etc, ) but as usual the reductionists have lost the plot. These ideas and people are very very dangerous and just like the GMO crowd need to be addressed on a serious basis. If they think “tech” will improve their human abilities..or crop abilities .maybe…but as others have said above , this brings new disease and genetic problems these “bull at the gate” idiots dont want to talk about. But they cant “make a better” or “create” a new YOU. YOU are not your body but I wont give a rant about religion because I dont believe in it. This is not a biological phenomena. So hard to explain…but scientism is the religion of these esteemed idiots and disgustingly flawed.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution – Director’s Cut addresses all this within an “interactive movie.” You are making moral decisions (including whether to kill or not kill) throughout this entire game (call it, a simulation) There are as many as 12 ending scenarios, depending on what decisions are made by the protagonist.
A full feature film is supposedly in the works. DE:HR setting is only less than 15 years from our present. 15 years ago, most people did not own a cellphone (except that from your employer, and it was not a smartphone), nor did they possess (or could afford) a powerful personal computer. Look where we are now. So, 15 years from now, who knows where we could actually be …
