Roy Anderson replied to Richard Leis, Jr.'s discussion 'Immortality'
My emotional reaction is a feeling of comradery. But I also feel a need for critical thinking with regard to the term "immortality." If we are to actually live forever, meaning a literally infinite lifespan, we must master time travel. What I advo...

With today's knowledge, Cytrans would have a lifespan of 500 to 700 years (the estimated maximum lifespan of human brain tissue, if the failing body didn't kill it sooner). Within that timeframe, more advanced methods of regenerating or replacing...

Hi! I hope technological developments will solve the aging problem. Some people believe that if we become immortal we will get into all kinds of trouble. But I think we and our society will evolve with the progress made. Maybe our society from to...

You might have said what you think of Transhumanistic Psychology and I might have missed it (I haven't learned fully how to use the Trans. site yet.)

Richard
I've found most of my ideas have a wealth of material. Going though the wealth from Humanistic to Transhumanistic would take around forty years I'd think. The issue is not in the wealth but in that Abraham Maslow at the suggestion of Stanislav Groff agreed to use the term "Transpersonal" for an entire new field in psychology and they left Maslow's original term: Transhumanistic. Thereby, what they did was to go "beyond the person" and not beyond the human. What I see is another step there already foreshadowed and supported by a major, major American Scientist: Maslow. Most of us, I think, can conceptualize Transhumanism physically. We have Star Trek! How about mentally? Yes, that too. How? We have Maslow. Therein is your Transhuman mentally and already worked-out long ago ready for the picking. (Yes, he just handed something to you fully formed and ready-to-go.) That's my point.

Thanks for the invitation. If curious, a description of what I do can be found at http://lindblom.bravehost.com What I'd like to see is a transcendance from Humanistic Psychology to Transhumanistic Psychology! That, ideally, would include the future and our role as transhumanistic transcendentalists! How about that for an idea? Eric

Social Networking Explosion

When does social networking get out of hand? So far I have now joined Facebook, Transhumanists.org, LinkedIn (for professional contacts), and Plaxo (my address book). I get separate email on different networks. I get invited by people, I invite people, and my social networking explodes, but I'm not really sure what the point is quite yet. Well, networking I guess. And meeting new people. And making use of widgets built around my network of friends, family and new acquaintances.

Just a f… Continue

Sharing Posters and Flyers

I have stripped our own club-specific information from several of our h+ posters and flyers and created template Photoshop and PDF files for your own use. Feel free to download these files and add your own information, or make modifications to best represent your own club.

These files are located on our h+ group page, in the Box.net widget, in the "Poster Templates" folder.

The other folders include specific h+ information that will probably not be useful to your own club. You… Continue
