[ExI] Most Critical Review of Transhumanism

[Damien Broderick]

Who needs critics when the topic is effectively invisible? See my 
friend Dr. (soon to be Dr. Dr.) Russell Blackford's recent blog post:

He starts:

"It's gradually becoming known who did and who did not get an 
invitation to the Australia 2020 seminar later this month, in which 
Australia's 1000 supposedly best and brightest thinkers will spend a 
weekend in Canberra solving the nation's problems and working out its 
future trajectory.

"I can report that I didn't get an invitation, and I'm not going to 
pretend I don't care.[...] (hey, guys, you now have a goddamn 
Australian as editor-in-chief of the Journal of Evolution and 
Technology, the leading intellectual flagship of the transhumanist 
movement; just thought I'd let you know)."
