<div class="intro">Interesting 35th anniversary <a href="http://www.foreignpolicy.com/story/cms.php?story_id=3158">Foreign Policy articles</a> on future change and the world in 2040..<br>
Albert Einstein claimed he never thought of the future. "It comes soon 
  enough," he said. <strong style="font-weight: normal;" class="fp_red">FOREIGN POLICY</strong> decided to not grant 16 leading thinkers 
  that luxury. Instead, to mark our 35th anniversary, we asked them to speculate 
  on the ideas, values, and institutions the world takes for granted that may 
  disappear in the next 35 years. Their answers range from fields as diverse as 
  morals and religion to geopolitics and technology. We may be happy to see some 
  of these "endangered species" make an exit, but others will be mourned. 
  All of them will leave a mark. <br><a href="http://www.foreignpolicy.com/story/cms.php?story_id=3159">The Sanctity of Life</a>  <span class="authorsmall">By Peter Singer</span><a href="http://www.foreignpolicy.com/story/cms.php?story_id=3160">

Some articles are available to free registered users, others only to
paying subscribers. From Singer's article (available in full text):: </span><span class="authorsmall">When the traditional ethic of the sanctity of human life is proven indefensible 
  at both the beginning and end of life, a new ethic will replace it. It will 
  recognize that the concept of a person is distinct from that of a member of 
  the species Homo sapiens, and that it is personhood, not species membership, 
  that is most significant in determining when it is wrong to end a life.</span><span class="authorsmall"><br>
