First, regarding transhumanism, Machine Gods etc., a usefull summation of life for the bios to be broadcast daily:
Your obsolence is inherent
Your irrelevance inevitable
Your existence tolerated
And should you oppose us
Your termination absolute
Second, a short bit on Hope I find necessary:
Hope is the sweet name given to the betrayal of reason. Keep your heart closely guarded in her presence. She will take everything you allow and give nothing in return. If you wish to deal in Hope, that is your business, but I'll have none of it. In my experience, there are far more merciful ways to ruin a persons life.
Third:
If ones life benefits others, this is all well and good. However, if ones life is lived entirely in the service of others and with no personal benefit, this is slavery. No sane person would agree to this.
Fourth:
If the sum of existence is nihil, as it is known to be, then there can be but two reasons for existing when one has the option and awareness not to: fear and vanity. If one is prone to neither, what is the remaining reason for choosing survival on a daily basis? Fear still holds sway, but I doubt whether that's for the best.
