Some serious thoughts about some serious subjects

Some thoughts worth thinking:


Will robots replace human partnerships? (relevant consideration: can artificial intelligence be fine tuned mechanically to have a positive or negative skew?)

Will it be possible to replace damaged neurons with nano-circuitry? (relevant  consideration: Does a neuron do more than connect?)

Will children be produced in clone mills? (Relevant consideration: Is cloning a universal taboo?)

Will it be possible to select a genetically engineered child from a catalog? (Relevant consideration: Can DNA be manipulated, banked or created?)

Why have so many cultural taboos disappeared? (Relevant consideration: What role does self discipline play in a well ordered society? Is sin culturally or divinely  defined? Does society always trend toward its self interests?


What is the impetus for consciousness? (Relevant consideration: Does the brain still function when under anesthesia?)

Why do so many believe there is life after death? (Relevant consideration: If life consists of a synthesis of chemical reactions is the energy  destroyed or dissipated?)

Why can some see ghosts while other’s can’t? (Relevant consideration: Is it possible that the life force energy of the departed can remain in the ether, and some could possess biological receptors that are capable of picking them up?)
