thats because.. you re young an unexperienced...

STFU. You don't even know what am I talking about and this kind of reply was a reply of a pure ignorance, I don't even want to go further into this, esp. when it comes to a bible thumping religious nut.

Yes, but the older you get the harder it is to learn anything new and things like personality traits are almost impossible to reverse. I don't see anything trying to address that and the question is, because of how interconnected and complex the brain is for example if you wanted to "delete" some old, unnecessary data how would you do so, and is it even possible w/the human brain without totally killing of a part of your "mental" self.

I wouldn't try to evaluate the possibility of "erasing memories" (for example) using a knowledge of a CURRENT technology. To learn something new may be 100times easier in a relatively near future with stuff like advanced nootropics, I don't even talk about medical nano bots, which may augment our brain in the future by various means/to a various degrees. People often make a mistake by evaluating of "what possible in the future", by using an understanding of a currently existing technologies.

You fear death?

You mean "death"? If so - not even a lil' (unless it's a painful one). Tho' I'm horrified by a gradual decline of an organism, that's called aging (unfortunately we aren't amongst these few species who doesn't show any signs of that deletrious process).

See Earth:Final Conflict, a sci-fi series that had neural implants that amplified our mental abilities and allowed us to be "within" our own memories.

15. I move to Australia were men are still men and the goverment is still conservative.

The government in Australia is most definitely not conservative.

Again, a little tongue in cheek humor but compared to the direction England and the USA is going you could say it is.

[Natural Man]

so how many of you own your houses or flats? when shit hits the fan , are you going to join the millions of bums , will you survive in a giant slum with them ?

Do you have a chimney in your house when electricity is cut?

Do you have neighbours to ally with to defend your vicinity from the numerous looters who will ally with others based on their skin color first?

Do you know how to cultivate vegetables?
How to hunt, fish, use traps?
Do you have firearms or/and air rifles?

Do you have secondary homes far away from the cities where you ll be able to survive the first bloody months of the recession, when in the citites, stocks of food will be pillaged by the strongest, most violent armed individuals while everyone else will be either killed or reduced to slaves?

Do you really think police or the army will protect the "people"? they ll be too busy caring for their owns or protecting the elites.

your theories about the future are based on the last movies shown in theaters these last two years. You re quite the intellectual arent you?

What about history? psychology? sociology ? biology? neurology? ethology? anthropology? theology ? just to name a few.

Oh yea, you have no clue about most of these things, as you re just an ignorant kid talking out of his ass with no real life experience and 0 valuable knowledges.

Sadly Australia and every white majority nation is rolling out the same economic and social bullshit policies. Still every country is at a different stage in the process England being the proud flag bearer being in first position, Australia is still some way behind but for sure it will catch up, however there still may be time for you to live there before its really fucked

uberman is really annoying after his religious mumbo jumbo started

arent you an arab whose parents moved to north america, who has troubles defining his own sexual, religious, racial identity, getting tattos watching american action movies and identifying with their characters, lifting weights, while attempting to stay "metrosexual" at the same time etc?

Lot of confused people in this troubled globalized era. Things will get a lot easier to understand soon enough.

[Rami]

enormous peace and prosper for just about everyone in the whole nation

Few movies, lmao. Listen fella, I could quote medical studies from PubMED and similar sources on the topic I talk about, even tho' I'm no student of a medical school or something, other stuff you mentioned - I'm sure you think you are a smart cookie in these (tho' I doubt you were reading Nietzche at 16, like I did), but don't go overboard or I'll have to embarass you once again (as clearly - you lack a critical thinking and a common sense to a certain degree. The belief in an imaginary friend on the cloud is a direct proof of that. Not to mention that you clearly have no idea about the topic I discuss as you wouldn't be talking about "movies of a recent years". You may be clever, I actually acknowledged it somewhere, but in this case you are simply not progressive enough, as in state of mind.).
 And finally - I don't need to have "experience" to be a visionaire (these who were sure a human can fly - hasn't had an experience in flying either), to discuss a potential of certain areas in an intellectual/constructive manner.

In my opinion usa survive because of the consumption.

i'm french and I spent 20 day between l.a - frisco - and vegas in september.

i couldn't believe the number of fast food - groceries - liquor store - shop - market - mall etc etc etc.

in l.a at each street crossing there was four gas station and four different fast food - taco bell, denny, in n' out, b king, and even more little restaurant chinese mexican pizza etc etc.
gas station making burger, protein bar everywhere.
what amaze me is that they were full 24-24.

the in and out in vegas near the on tropicana was full all day long and first night in vegas we ate at "a all you can eat" chinese at 03 a.m, the place was full.

restaurant are closed at 21 p.m in france and open at 11 a.m. 


same thing for ralph albertson wall-m (crappy place) target etc etc.


America is the land of consummation, it survive because american are consumming everytime so they spend money, that create job etc etc.
it's a circle.
