WJS contra H+ & Citizen Cyborg on KSSZ


Wesley J. Smith

Wesley J. Smith

Posted: Dec 12, 2006

Bioconservative activist Wesley J. Smith writes: “Transhumanism on the Air - I was interviewed for an hour by Derek Gilbert yesterday on KSSZ about transhumanism, post humanity, and genetic enhancement of our progeny. We discuss human exceptionalism. I quote James Hughes’ assertion from Citizen Cyborg that creating an ape/human hybrid would prove that human exceptionalism is bunk, or as he puts it, would disprove “human racism.” We also discuss transhumanism as a “new eugenics” and get into the history of the old eugenics.”
