Transhumanism www.transhumanism.org/ is the ideological belief that science and technology should be used to enhance our brains and bodies. It is the ultimate futurism ideology. Raj Ganatra

In which case the Nordic subrace will be augmented by all sorts of peoples (esp. females). Look at the Black popstars (e.g. Beyonce), they are trying to lighten their skin. But if we all looked Nordic I would commit suicide. Nordic women are only attractive once one has seen the darker hordes around the globe.

Before I became the nihilist f*ck I am today, I was very pro Transhumanism. Hell, I even was making plans of living long enough to become a post-human. (Trans-humans are those in line to become post-humans)
Alas, there is no positive future in sight. The Universe itself cares not about simple dirt, such as us, and our efforts to become better than what we currently are today are useless for tomorrow. In the end only Death prevails.

Yes, you certainly can depend upon death more than anything else.

Yes, we all die. But we inhabit this Earth and must make it our domain - it is the problem of the West that no one looks long-term or past their own greed and consumption.

I don't think lack of long term goals is the problem. Part of the problem is the hedonism by which many Westerners live. The satisfaction of the flesh in the now, mass consumption (you mentioned that one) brain-deads worshiping the idiot box, "reality tv", ad nauseam. But facing the fact that we are a nothing in a vast sea of stars is healthy

Sea of stars...reminds me of the dream I had last night. It was twilight and the sky was dotted with red stars. Turned out it was some kind of weapon...a web of lights in the atmosphere. No clue as to its purpose. Then...the US dropped a good old fashioned fat boy right over my house. Needless to say I woke up quite abruptly (as I was blown to micro-chunks.)
About transhumanism: it is interesting from an observer's pov. One can follow the movement in so many ways, e.g., being pro-biotech/nanotech, being a health and fitness nut, engaging in drug-induced transcendent actitivies a la Terence McKenna, engaging in the cyborg movement (as an artist or scholar or whatever), modifying your body, taking part in simulations, or just reading scifi.
For a few years I spent quite a bit of time on >human websites, but drifted away from it. I admire people like James Hughes, a scholar who is actually taking the movement to the mainstream, but I have no time for the Singularity freaks.

Well, they're one and the same. Or one comes with the other. Anyway, I believe you can get a female rabit to clone herself. I imagine if this could be done easily with human females, there won''t be much use for us

But if we all looked Nordic I would commit suicide. Nordic women are only attractive once one has seen the darker hordes around the globe. I think light colouring will be more popular than dark, but that doesn't mean that non-Nordics will actually want to produce offspring with completely changed bone structure and such. I fail to see why for example a Japanese couple would want to produce a son or daughter who looks completely Nordic and doesn't bear a single Japanese trait. As far as hair and eye colour go, we already have hair dye and coloured contacts. Plus, if all the people of the world chose to go blond and blue-eyed, the dark brunettes will become more exotic and sought after. Apart from that, if we ever reach the stage where we can alter ourselves genetically, it will most likely be a few rich people who can afford this. So we'll have a transhumanist elite (who will most likely look down on everyone else, your beloved whites included ;D) and a mass of untermensch. I fail to see how transhumanism can be a choice for every human on the planet.
