I think a healthy amount of fear is good for you, I mean how boring would driving a car fast or riding a roller-coaster without that tinge of fear.

They're talking about recent, emotional, memories. Not fear as a whole.

AKA Rape or witnessing a horrific murder. Things which would leave you mentally and emotionally damaged for the rest of your life while the criminal gets a measly slap on the wrist and is allowed to walk free just to do it again.

"Erasing" memories doesn't sound like a good idea.

Even with a lot of recent trauma. This world needs to stop relying so much on "engineering" people both mentally and physically.

Now if you'll excuse me...I'm GRABBIN' PEELS

I will agree in part that fragility is what makes a human being, but not physically. Since the dawn of intelligence we have tried to augment our physical capabilities through technology. Transhumanism is a natural, evolutionary process.

Fair enough. These boobs didn't grow themselves. lol

No, but seriously, we need to work on our natural evolutions, not manufactured ones.

BlmThug4230d ago

We humans need fear to survive, or else whats going to stop the average human from jumping off a tall building or stop a person from running into traffic?

If they could do this with laziness I'd be set.

Sarcasm4230d ago

The problem is that they are too lazy to do it with laziness.

This is pretty interesting I would like to know when will the treatment be available worldwide. Does anyone know?

What better way to create the ultimate soldier/killer

Kos-Mos4230d ago

You need fear stupid. Or else you`d get yourself killed very fast.

Kureno_Nakamura4230d ago

You don't have to call me stupid, fgt
