No. 054 beyond humanity
Tingfeng Zhenren claims to be open-minded, and thinks that if someone is obsessed with tea painting and has a small achievement, then it is not unacceptable to spend his life for it; But if you like tea painting but don't have the talent for tea painting, and you can't achieve anything in the same place for 30 years, it is undoubtedly a waste of life. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Unable to understand the Seven Star Empire's egoistic values, he criticized this waste of resources from a pragmatic standpoint. Listening to the wind and examining this tea house critically, the nature that falls into the eyes is all discordant.
It seems that the three salesmen of the tea house, if it were not for the reminder of the rain real person, the real person who listened to the wind would never have imagined that it was the shopkeeper himself who frequently walked around to add tea to customers, worked hard and thoughtfully and asked for advice, and the couple of men and women who sat in the corner and smirked from time to time were the waiters.
How can there be such a strange phenomenon in the world, the shopkeeper sits leisurely and leisurely, the shopkeeper works hard to serve tea and welcome, and the social relationship structure of the Seven Star Empire is really weird and unimaginable.
Listening to the rain real person to explain, the well-off era of food and clothing is worry-free, few people are bent over for life, old age and illness, the quality of the service industry has long been 108,000 miles, non-state supervision of the small shop, customers are not cold face is lucky. The owner is so hard-working, not because she is like this by nature or with such a personality, but because she really loves tea art and sincerely improves fragrant tea, so she takes the trouble to collect customer opinions.
Listening to the wind can really understand, but can't understand such an order.
During listening to Feng Zhenren's criticism of the egoistic value system, he found a new question for a long time: "Hey, what's going on, this teahouse seems to be just talking to the two of us?" ā
Listening to Yu Zhenren pointed to the bio-breeding equipment of long-range glasses: "Just like the mobile phone a few years ago, although the quality is good and bad, the bio-breeding equipment has become the national standard configuration of the Seven Star Empire. ā
Listening to the wind, the real person was surprised: "Didn't you see it?" ā
Listening to Yu Zhenren: "You and I use nostalgic style long-range glasses, they use recessive biogenesis, liquid nerve connections are simply implanted into the mouth, nose, eyes and ears, and photonic chips are either hidden in the back of the head or extended to the abdomen. Like contact lenses in the age of lenses, bio-recreation collection components are hidden in the dark that are not easy to find, quietly replacing the old five-senses system. Just now you said that the two waiters giggled from time to time, and the reason was that the nerve signals communicated, bypassing the old five senses such as voice, and directly interacting with others through the Internet, thousands of miles away, sharing what they saw, heard, and smelled in real time. ā
Listening to the wind, Zhenren was stunned: "Can it still be like this?" ā
Tingyu Zhenren smiled: "In the Xiangyan world, the bio-breeding costume was once called an artificial divine thought, which means that the bio-breeding costume is like the divine idea of a qi refiner. Perhaps it is still humble now, but with the continuous development of non-spiritual mechanics, the biobreeding suit will definitely have incredible potential, and eventually catch up with the Qi Refiner Divine Thought. The Seven Star Empire had long debated which was superior and inferior between the way of qi refining and perception and the way of scientific reason, until Wen Xin left a famous saying: The difference between good and bad lies in whether the other party can do it or not. Qi refining can lead to immortality, and natural science can also live forever; Qi refining can destroy the heavens and the earth, and natural science can also destroy the heavens and the earth; Qi refining can be superhumanized through aura, and natural science can be superhumanized with tools such as biocolonization. If, the way of scientific reason can replicate all the miracles of the way of qi refining and comprehension, then the way of scientific reason will never be inferior to the way of qi refining and comprehension, after the new consequential theory, the mortal elite of the Seven Star Empire gradually looked down on the subtleties of qi refining, and instead became keen on the scientific method to replicate the miracle of qi refining, and the concept of biological reproduction was the product of such thinking. ā
Listening to the wind Zhenren laughed and said, "Replace the divine thought? ā
Listening to the wind real person's voice is very frivolous, obviously listening to it as a joke.
Although the bifurcature costumes such as the vision glasses are magical, they are more powerful than the divine mind.
But, listening to the rain real people did not laugh.
Listening to Yu Zhenren's solemn voice, he said: "Consequentialism examines the advantages and disadvantages, what I can do in the way of refining qi and understanding, but what I can't do in the way of scientific reason, can be attributed to the fact that the laws of natural science have not yet been completely revealed; However, what the path of scientific reason can do, but the way of qi refining and perception cannot do, most of them are attributed to the unwillingness of qi refiners to do it. For example, in the mother world, thousands of mortals, in the feudal era for tens of thousands of years, the most Qi Refiner's contribution was to spread clouds and rain during the drought time, and never tried to solve the problem fundamentally. Thinking back to the hardships of hundreds of millions of mortals in the mother world, and comparing the carefree of the Seven Star Empire, it is no wonder that the People's Society shouted that the Qi Refiners were silverfish that hindered social progress. ā
Listening to the wind, Zhenren scattered a flirtatious smile and looked at his junior sister solemnly: "Your idea is very dangerous. ā
Listening to the rain real person turned his head and did not look at the real person listening to the wind: "I have no intention of falling into the devil's way, nor do I intend to provoke the law of real people, if I am willing to mix with mediocrity, I will cultivate what immortal and what way." I just think that the distinction between real people and people may not be so clear, I just think that real people should not abandon mortals, I just feel that Dao has never been disgusted with mortals, I am just thinking about it because of the concept of the Seven Star Empire's bio-breeding suit and the concept of genetically modified babies. Natural science is natural science, social science is social science, and the birth of every new technology will stimulate the evolution of social science. Let me tell you what I have heard and seen in the past few years, and you will understand my heart. ā
Listen to the rain real people tell what they have seen and heard.
For example, the birth of smart phones has brought countless low-headed people, and the birth of bio-breeding has also brought new living habits.
The first is the mode of communication, which is far superior to acoustic signal communication in terms of efficiency and accuracy. Simple-level neural signal communication can solve the problem of local dialect accent; Medium-level neural signal communication, combined with partial interpretation of photonic chips, has been able to solve different language problems. The neural signal communication, which is intended to increase the ability of language, unexpectedly presents a new picture without language isolation. Human beings do not speak for the sake of talking, but for the sake of communication, and when there is a more convenient way of communication, speaking naturally takes a back seat, which is to say: the ability to speak is degraded!
Yes, the language abilities of the citizens of the Seven Star Empire are beginning to fade.
This kind of fading is not a fading of mouth muscle control, this fading is easy to solve, and nerve signal control can solve the problem perfectly. The real problem with language degradation is that people are gradually abandoning the inefficient way of communication such as voice pronunciation, and instead use brain nerve signals to communicate directly, and get used to direct communication of brain nerve signals and then return to voice vocalization, as if returning to the barbaric primitive era from the well-off era.
It is not only language that has deteriorated, but also sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch.
And so on.
In fact, it is not appropriate to say that it is degrading, perhaps it should be described as evolution.
Because, equipped with a biocolonization suit, the five senses such as sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch will only increase, not decrease.
Removing the biological recreation suit is only more primitive to the body, and the ability of the five senses is undoubtedly seriously degraded; However, if the biological breeding suit is also regarded as a part of the physical body, the ability of the five senses is increased by a hundred thousand times.
The crux of the question, is the bio-breeding suit considered a part of the flesh?
At first, everyone thought that it was not, how could the bio-breeding suit be considered a part of the flesh.
However, as time passed, the answer gradually became less certain, and the Seven Star Empire began to discuss what was considered flesh. With the development of natural science to this day, organ transplantation has long been commonplace, both one's own cloned organs and other people's organs can be transplanted. Even if we insist on the theory of human body characteristics, the answer is not optimistic, because as a member of carbon-based life, human body characteristics have always been slowly changing, and the archaeological conclusions of 3 million years ago are already very different from modern humans, and it is conceivable that after another 100 million years of reproduction, human physical characteristics will be different. In the final analysis, human beings are nothing more than a period of genetic material that is not very reliable, and the mutations accumulate to a certain extent, and the devil knows what it will become.
Accepting these pessimistic arguments diminishes the importance of the flesh.
At the same time, the emergence of genetically modified babies is also challenging old values. The essence of reproduction, the genetic fusion of parents is for life, and the parenting and teaching is for raising. In terms of birth alone, since the parents of genetically modified babies are derived from genetic inheritance, especially genetically modified babies with deep editing, such as the perfect babies who gathered the best genetic splicing and editing of human beings a few years ago? And if the broad basis of birth is lost, the concept of raising cannot be established, because if you only seek to raise and teach, why call him father and mother. The existence of orphanages is not a day, and how many orphans are willing to treat orphanages as their own parents.
The excellence of genetically modified babies is enviable, but if the concept of gene editing is accepted, the family concept shaped by genetic inheritance will usher in a big collapse.
At the same time, there are good and there are inferior.
The concept of gene editing flourished, and at the same time, it also ushered in genetic discrimination: is it irresponsible or even a crime for inferior genes to reproduce offspring?
Rolling waves, countless disputes, to put it mildly, there is only one core, that is, human beings are surpassing human beings.
Humanity is surpassing humanity.
Whatever the outcome, it will surely transcend the old concept of humanity and usher in a new definition of humanity.
Beyond humans.
Transcendence in quality such as biological colonization, and transcendence in concepts such as gene editing.
Morality disintegrates and reshapes, and law disintegrates and reshapes.
The most typical is last year's sister-brother marriage case, the old law prohibits close relatives from marrying, but the sister and brother expressed their dissatisfaction with the verdict and spent ten years running: the purpose of prohibiting close relatives to marry is eugenics, but we are willing to give up the right to natural reproduction, and the gene editing law gives birth to the next generation, so what is the crime? Is it the immaturity of gene editing methods, or is it a pure form that imprisons human love? The case eventually overturned the old marriage examination system and replaced it with a new genetic examination rule, which put heavy pressure on the old moral system, causing the concept of family to quickly collapse.
Beyond humans.
The definition of human beings is no longer limited to established cognition.
Although no consensus has been formed, the theory of organization of biological reproduction, gene editing to subvert the theory of heredity, and so on, have broken into the eyes of the world one after another, and caused a series of shocks.
