Religion: I consider myself a Jewish Unitarian Universalist Transhumanist Quaker.

It is hard to take someone's politics seriously when he is so confused religiously.

Not to mention the motivation of a self described Progressive Democrat's opinion of a Republican candidate.

BTW most of that info came from google caches, it had been pulled from his personal website. Have to be careful what you put on the web.

I get stuck at Trans humanist and Quaker myself...

The etymology of the term "transhuman" goes back to futurist FM-2030 (born F. M. Esfandiary) who, while teaching new concepts of the human at The New School university in 1966, introduced it as shorthand for "transitory human". Calling transhumans the "earliest manifestation of new evolutionary beings," FM argued that signs of transhumans included physical and mental augmentations including prostheses, reconstructive surgery, intensive use of telecommunications, a cosmopolitan outlook and a globetrotting lifestyle, androgyny, mediated reproduction (such as in vitro fertilisation), absence of religious beliefs, and a rejection of traditional family values.[1]

I am just trying to envision being pitched Quaker Oats by an Atheistic, neutral gendered Borg...
