@ WHAT IS HUMAN NATURE? To Christians, human beings are easy to identify. We
are merely the fallen children of God, out of favour with our creator, and
trying to find our way home. To Darwinists we're unique as the only hair-
less species of ape. http://www.arthurchappell.clara.net/humannature.htm
@ THE MAN-MACHINE AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE. For thousands of years humans
have wrestled with the question of their "human" nature. In particular,
they've attempted to define themselves in relation to the animal kingdom.
Arrogant twits... http://www.stanford.edu/group/SHR/4-2/text/mazlish.html
: Are you human, special, half-divine, animalistic, clones? Do you have some
inherent nature? Is it identifiable? Is "human nature" oxymoronic? Have you
probed any primates lately? Have primates probed you? Was it stimulating??

@ Suppose pig and potato DNA are combined to create self-fattened French
fries. Are they kosher? There are two ways to answer this question. At
least. http://www.philosophynews.com/philosopheye/PE20000331.htm
: What are the greatest prospects and problems associated with cloning? Do
they encompass technology, ethics, religion, sex, politics, money, art? How
far should/can/will you be cloned? Have you promoted cloning lately? Where?

CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance—not soap-boxing—please! These are sordid
matters
and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds—is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
