We need to study transsexuals as a precursor to understanding transhumans. Get ready. It's coming.

Definition of trans- (Entry 3 of 3)

"trans-whatever"

A transsexual is not “on the other side” of their sexual identity. Rather, one so pre-occupied with identity of the body, is enslaved by sexual identity, not beyond it, not across it, not on the other side of it. Thus, the preoccupation with being special.

I don't actually agree with that, henry, but it made me laugh, so you are still my numero uno PN poster. :)

Quite right. And the same could be said for anybody whose so-called "identity" is wholly focused on nothing but their particular sexual proclivities, as if they were inevitably definitive of the whole person.

They're as sad and one-faceted as somebody whose whole identity is tied up with eating, sleeping, or bathroom habits...all things which all of us also have, and all of which indicate nothing but a crabbed, narrow, dull and unimaginative view of humanity.

One wants to ask: have you had a single aspiration beyond your animal nature in your entire life?

Meanwhile...

Your entire "identity" revolves around exactly one thing, which is the most unpleasantly conservative possible interpretation of Christian scripture.

I have to say that is an accurate observation. I wish we could find a way to free him from that awful religious baggage he is burdened with. I have tried, but to no avail. I suspect nothing short of exorcism will save him. :(
