[extropy-chat] Survival

[John K Clark]

Ok let's think about this logically and unemotionally. Let's suppose for the
sake of argument that Lee Corbin philosophy is correct; what would be the
result? You're dead meat. You can't upgrade so soon you'll be surrounded
beings enormously more powerful than yourself, and you don't stand a
snowball's chance in hell of surviving the Singularity meat grinder.

Let's suppose for the sake of argument that John Clark's philosophy is
correct, what would be the result? You instantly agree to upgrade at every
opportunity, and you still probably won't survive the Singularity meat
grinder, but at least you have a chance. So, what would be the smart
philosophy to embrace? Given the choice between no chance and slim chance 
I'll pick slim chance any day.
