Advancements?

Ok, so I was just watching videos on Youtube when I saw the title "Cyborgs are the new future!"
Um, what? Ok, that's just a prank, right? Right? 
Nope. 
People are insane!This scientist says "I think in the next 200 years or so homo sapiens will upgrade themselves ... into divine beings," ARE YOU OFF YOUR ROCKER? This is the start to every movie where something goes wrong, people are cyborgs, and the world is DESTROYED! But there's more. "Either through biological manipulation or genetic engineering of by the creation of cyborgs, the perfect creation of organic and non-organic" That's it. 
We're all going to die.

And if that's not weird enough for you, get this: Human HEAD TRANSPLANTS. I mean, I get that people in wheel chairs can walk again and people with paralysis can finally feel what it's like to move, but what happens to the person they take the body from? It would have to be a healthy, living, working body, right? Is it for people who have a death wish?

Scientists and robot-engineers have also created androids, hoping they will live a long, peaceful life among the people. Why? Androids don't have feelings. People already have trouble dating other people. What happens when every one is married to some robot and no one can have children? What then, because in my opinion, that would mean: No more human race. Answer what you think about this issue in the comments. In fact, answer if you think this is even an issue and your planning to accept your robot overlords.

Your anti-android friend,
Ahna

  2. If given the opportunity to live on for hundreds of years with robotic limbs and my own brain, I would totally do it. I'm not too crazy about how short our lifespans are. Sadly, science can't extend the functioning life of a brain that far yet...
    In my opinion the greatest threat to our planet right now comes from overpopulation. So maybe robots won't consume as many resources as we human do? Hmmm...
