1 Leave a comment on paragraph 1 0 this is the full post intended for the meetup.

2 Leave a comment on paragraph 2 0 This Sunday will be my first meetup. I’m 83 and recovering from cervical spine surgery. I have worked for 5 decades for a better future of Humankind/Gaia, for next year to millennia ahead.

3 Leave a comment on paragraph 3 0 ==================

4 Leave a comment on paragraph 4 0 I propose that Human Reproduction Practices must radically change if Humankind/Gaia is to survive/thrive.

5 Leave a comment on paragraph 5 0 This will challenge the ethics of many contemporary humans. However, “ethics” are culturally relative; although this is “believed” false by many. Future H R Practices will be “ethical” for those practicing.

6 Leave a comment on paragraph 6 0 Here I cite one change: the whole genome pool will be “managed by design” to improve the distribution of variation in the human population.

7 Leave a comment on paragraph 7 0 For example, the genetic propensity (~1%) for psychopathy needs significant reduction. A psychopath was necessary for the survival of human tribes; when crises threatening the whole tribe required abandonment of some persons. A lack of empathy would have been needed in these crises. In non-crisis times, the tribal psychopath was integrated into tribal life. Today, the many without empathy become masters of “brutal” competition and rise to the top in political and economic societal systems. How the population with fewer psychopaths, in our distant future, will be managed depends on many factors and variables.

8 Leave a comment on paragraph 8 0 How much of our Crisis-of-Crises is influenced by our population of psychopaths, free to act?

9 Leave a comment on paragraph 9 0 Our genetic predispositions have subtle variation; “psychopathy” is a crude category containing great variation. Are rapists psychopaths?

10 Leave a comment on paragraph 10 0 There are hundreds of genome tweaks future humans will need to consider. Parents can already select from some genetic traits for their children, including their sex/gender.
