[extropy-chat] Still confused:)

[Daniel Wolfson]

To explain the difference I will make a single
statement definition of what a Tranhumanist is, what
an Extropian is and what a Singulatarian is.

Tranhumanists are people who believe technology can
help us transcend our limitations and that that is
desirable. Extropians are transhumanists who believe
in the Principles of Extropy. Singulatarians believe
in the probability and desirability of the
Singularity, the predicted future event believed to
precede immense technological progress in an
unprecedentedly brief time.

So the point is one can be a tranhumanist, extropian,
and singulitarian at the same time, but not all
transhumanists are extropians, not all extropians are
singulitarians, and not all singulitarians are
extropians.

I don't know the differences between this list and SL4
though.
