And I've also read a lot about the Singularity and Ray Kurzweil. I'm thrilled to find someone else out there who shares this in common with me. Did you like the book? Do you think that in the near future we will have the early workings of an all-knowing entity perhaps living in a virtual world? Is it all inevitable? Are we doomed to become God? Does this worry you? excite you? both? I don't know what to think any more. Imagining a future with immortal, super-intelligent humans, and virtual realities for too long makes my head spin too.

What are your thoughts?

Since you liked God's Debris it is my duty to reccomend you back the text "Is God a Taoist?" by Raymond Smullyan. It is a chapter of the book "The Tao is Silent" (which is absolutely marvelous as a whole, too). Doing a quick search online, I found a link to it: http://www.mit.edu/people/dpolicar/writing/prose/text/godTaoist.html Best Wishes. Luciano. Hi Scott,
