Working in tech + have a pathologist for a father. Unequivocally yes, I think transhumanism is a good idea. Arguing against transhumanism is arguing that you believe either (a) the body was created perfectly or (b) that we'll do more harm than good if we tinker with it. The body is a machine. A bloody complicated machine, with many parts we don't understand, but a machine nonetheless. I don't believe in a future where substantial body modification doesn't make us better, in all objective senses. And we do it today: vaccinations, pacemakers, artificial hips and joints and valves, cochlear implants, the myriad of drugs to modify various bodily processes, limb replacements, mRNA drugs. The body is programmable: it's just very complex. But that hasn't stopped up as a species from achieving other equally difficult things.
