The fear that Humans would become obsolete, and becoming highly dependent on technology; examples include sending emails rather instead of a letter, human labor is being replaced with machines in sectors like manufacturing with robots. When I think of all the problems that would be eliminated in a world of growing Transhumanism, the progress and the solutions it provides are just too enticing.

    Enhancements to an individual’s life due to advancements in science and technology may cloud the foundation of what makes humans, human. This is the message that I believe Huxley is trying to convey through Brave New World by the exaggeration of these advancements. The society in Brave New World is heavily influenced by theories such as social darwinism and eugenics, and possesses the technological prowess to implement the latter into society in an attempt to filter out undesirable traits in a much more effective way than unconventional methods like genocide for example.…

    Last November, a week before Thanksgiving, I was listening to the morning radio talk show The Woody Show and the hosts were talking about how excited they were for the Thanksgiving feast. They all went around and shared what was their perfect meal for that day. It ranged from fried turkey, to stuffing, cornbread, green bean casserole, and towards the end the hosts argued about cranberry sauce. However, they all agreed that pumpkin pie was essential to the perfect meal. I found it very interesting that while they argued about the way the meal was executed, they all agreed on the basic components to the meal-I didn’t.…
