[ExI] YES! to Transhumanism

[giovanni santost]

I like the name a lot, and what is wrong about something that would light up the imagination of 8-10 years old boys (or girls)?
I think being a transhumanist is  about using the rational discrimination of an adult (well, very few adults have really any discrimination at all) and keeping, at the same time, all the enthusiasm  and imagination of a child .
I love to see my boy amazement for everything around him (he is only 2), it inspires me everyday.

Is it only me, or does "Order of Cosmic Engineers" sound like
something 8-10 year old boys would be avid to join by clipping the coupon on the
back of their Kellogg's packet? (Free plastic raygun with every 20 packet
tops!)
