Exactly what was the point of this thread other than to ramble on about genetic purity? Adolf Hitler thought that at well.....genetic purity that is....blond hair blue eyes....master race.....blah blah blah.
Mankind through dogged determination is slowing finding the cures for its ills. It does not happen overnight.
We are a war-like species. We have fought and fought and fought our way to the top of the food chain. What makes you think we will limit our fighting to the planet Earth? You can't unteach our war-like nature. It defines us. It is who we are. You can temper it. You can try and control it. You just can't stop it. When we do venture forth to the stars....if we meet opposition...we will take what we want by force. George Washington didn't sit down and use his persuasive powers of speech to defeat the British....He shot them.

It could also be argued that we are not all part of a collective and that each of our destiny's are individualized and hence free will is the gift that allows us to choose our own personal path to enlightenment.

Please no more religions, no need. I believe we are in the path to realize we all have a personal connection with the Divinity, The Father. Like Jesus or Siddhartha showed us (just an example). I am christian but I don't go to any church, priests and pastors are just the "middle men".

Hmm, I don't fully agree. But i believe change starts with the individual. I just think the universe is a little more complex than just having rampant ignorance running around killing things.
That's just my 2 cents

Instead of focusing our technologies and resources on waging war against each other - mankind should be waging a war on disease and sickness via genetic engineering - but instead of thinking of the future we are squandering our resources on developing weapons of war.
Death reigns instead of Life.
The animal in man, conquers the Divine in Man.
Man must turn his attention inwards and direct his intelligence and technologies to conquering death and sickness within himself and in developing the creed of creative self evolution.
Instead of waging war on others, we must wage war on the sickess and diseases that resides within us all human beings - and this is a war against the inherited genetic defects of a defective species of animal[/
That defective animal is man.
This is not Eugenics, with its doctrine of racial and of individual superiority - this is the reality that no individual is superior and nor is any race, as we are all as equally defective as each other.
The intellect of every human being is caged in the body of a defective animal.
Until every human is engineered so that every inherited disease is removed from their genes, then all of humanity is capable of being corrupted by those genes.
Man must transcend his animal nature and transcend the inherited genetic defects of an animal.
That means we all leave the level of the Animal, together as a species.
Only when all of mankind have removed all those genetic defects from themselves - do we as indiviiduals and as a species transcend the level of the animal and become masters of our own evolution and destiny - and become The Star Man.
Mankind must evolve as a species so that we can leave Earth and colonise the stars.
Failure to do that will result in the eventual destruction of the planet and the extinction of all humanity, either by a nuclear war or by the slow suicide of human over population and new diseases as Nature strikes back against the human plague that will threaten the ecology of the planet.
Mans destiny is to allow man to evolve to a higher post-human species.
The Star Man is our salvation,
