Surely better is human; after all, when God placed humanity into his creation it changed from being 'good' to being 'very good.'<br /><br />This makes me think of the Hazel O'Connor song, Eighth Day (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBkvcQEGq9k)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6327165758377801408.post-24280021970975241222013-07-16T21:07:24.624-07:002013-07-16T21:07:24.624-07:00Scary, but fascinating, thoughts.Scary, but fascinating, thoughts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6327165758377801408.post-16145610296650007762013-07-16T20:45:05.740-07:002013-07-16T20:45:05.740-07:00The truth and hopefully we have a handle on it to ...The truth and hopefully we have a handle on it to help them if needed.

Charlie Rose had a program last week about this. <br /><br />The consensus was that "organic" robots are just a sneeze away - and the likelihood is we will mate with them and that way will go humanity to a place that needs less oxygen and water, who have sex in the usual way, but are incubated rather than carried as humans normally do.
