For me, this is alright, especially if stem cells can be taken/made from blood as recent research suggests. GM shit though, I don't trust. But that's a different issue. Another potential moral issue would be, for example George Best, a footballer and alcoholic. He kept drinking after receiving a liver transplant and killed himself, that liver could have went to somebody else who may not have abused it. I don't suppose that's such an issue in the US, given unlimited organs and no donors required then sure, take as many as you need as long as you can afford a surgeon to fire it in for you.

The Russians science would astound you. Their tools are intelligent and work with the users/doctors heart/mind and intention... sort of sci-fi tech, kind of like the Montauk Chair can be controlled by mental power. They can rebuild the hardest material in the body - teeths. What next step will be are PURE ENERGY MEDICINE with hologram robotics, kind of like seen in this movie. (as you all in the know are aware about, we are pure energy) [link to www.youtube.com] But I guess the fascists in top echelon will put the lid on as usual - as the only way those evil freaks use this tech for is to mindfuck and assault humans with, and it's kept secluded to repairing the elite reptilian aliens bodies.... |

Soph User ID: 35837753 Denmark 03/09/2013 12:21 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | this is the early stages of the replicator technology from star trek. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 33984290 We already have that.... not officially though. In the field of Atom-engineering, the buildingblocks of life are used and it builds up anything almost like in organ-printing in 3D printers... it's about building/designing anything from the atoms up to finished product... Alchemy. This might interest you: TECH v2012: Energy, Replicators, and Starships - Adam Apollo Our current technological development is reaching an apex, seemingly only limited by the physical constraints of this universe. Yet our entire structure of physical understanding is undergoing a massive transformation, as new theories and equations succeed in describing the spacetime fabric as a lattice of wormholes connecting everything simultaneously. An award winning paper in Physics from the revered CASYS conference in Belgium shows that small black holes could lie at the center of every proton, and all matter, replacing the strong and weak force with gravity. These new physics focusing on the spacetime structure reveal that we could engage and adjust the fabric itself, changing localized gravity and accessing energy in extremely efficient ways. Science fiction technologies like replicators, free energy systems, and gravity drives now appear to be completely possible to produce. This talk explores these new technologies emerging from recent physics insights, and the effect they would have on the entire structure of human life and society. It also covers the practical challenges in development and implementation of these technologies from physics and engineering perspectives.
