> dhw: My IM doesn't need random mutations. In the theistic version, I see no reason why we should not allow for dabbling. But for me that would mean that either God knew what he wanted and had to intervene because his experiments weren't working, or he didn't know what he wanted and fiddled around with new ideas as he went along.-Well, my IM is semi-autonomous because a totally autonomous IM might head in a weird direction that God didn't like.

> dhw: To be honest, would anybody really like to live forever? BBella once offered us a nice solution to that dilemma - you can opt out at any time, or choose to take on a new identity.-Well, we can't live forever. We have to make room for others. This current human race cannot go on forever, but I'll bet there will be others at a different time and a different galaxy.
