The only thing more disturbing than technological trans-humanism is the amount of people that support it.

Once again, yes. AI and robotics are a threat to humanity as we know it. But how can you be satisfied with humanity as it is?
I'm not satisfied with how some humans behave, but I'm satisfied with humans as an organism. This is the form nature intended for us, and completely getting rid of it for convenience is a violent perversion of nature that can't end well. History is not kind to those who play God.
