Animal Rights/Bioethics/Transhumanism to Converge at Yale

Animal Rights/Bioethics/Transhumanism to Converge at Yale - By Wesley J. Smith - Human Exceptionalism - National Review Online: "The animal rights, mainstream bioethics, and the transhumanist movements each want to destroy society’s belief in the unique value of human life: Animal rightists in order to create moral equality between us and fauna; transhumanists because they are a eugenics movement and believe they have to knock humans off the pedestal of exceptionalism as a predicate to engaging in biological recreationism; and mainstream bioethics would make membership in the human species morally irrelevant to allow the utilitarian exploitation of some of us as a natural resource (among other reasons)."
