I just watched a fascinating anime movie called Appleseed. If you haven't watched it yet, I highly recommend it to anyone, even if you don't typically watch from the anime genre. Appleseed is great for its action and its plot, but even better for its profound technoethical inquiries into the right to life of man-made life forms and the purpose of man's existence upon the creation of a man-made life form that is intellectually and sociologically superior to man.
In a world where man's imperfections and sins act as a barrier to the continued progression of society, what do you think if the point of man's continued existence?
