Subject: Re: Can we create the overman?




Genetics is our only hope. Here in India we have realised that the intelligent
don't breed a third as much as the peasants. Simple fucking and waiting for natural
selection to do its thing will not make an overman. Evolution doesn't work
progressively. Too diffuse! In any case, any more brains and we might go extinct!

Do we even have a syllabus for what constitutes an overman? I think we need to know
what we want, before we can figure out the technics of getting there. Being
energetic or stronger and doing more bench presses and eating carbs/proteins/fats
60:30:10 will not make us the superman. And for the life of me, I can't objectify
Nz's `spiritually fittest' overman. What physical modifications in man would
make.him spiritually stronger?

Genetics can do a lot. It can give us the haemoglobin of an alligator to increase
our oxygen-carrying capacity. We can run and swim longer and faster.

Genetics can give us, like I said earlier, a rechargeable dick. Probably a
hermaphroditic cunt too, if you get as sick of women as Nz did at times. (It will
save me a lot of money, too)

Genetics can make us hibernate for centuries. Stronger muscles, a
350-year-life-span, 7-foot frame, lots of stuff.

But the mind? That's where the key lies. As I said before, consciousness of time -
like of the other 3 dimensions  - is a must. We have all felt vague time warps in
our dreams, but is this a hallucination or a possible reality. We are still
evolving and ES'P (or the ability to read receding time waves) can be possible.
Yes, I know it's junk for many, but as Nietzscheans we have only the here and now
to speculate within..

What else can we do to the mind that will enlarge our consciousness? Follow the
course of monkey to ape to man and let me know quick - I am sick of man!

Any thoughts would well be savioured.
