Zoltan Istvan quotes:

The American Dream has become a death sentence of drudgery, consumerism, and fatalism: a garage sale where the best of the human spirit is bartered away for comfort, obedience and trinkets. It's unequivocally absurd.

It amazes me that we spend 20% of the US budget on defense and far-off wars, and not on fighting cancer, disease, and aging.

Frederick Nietzsche was important to me, in teaching that it's okay to strive to improve the human being.

My goal is to try to tell the public that America could use more science and technology in all aspects of its life.

Transhumanism literally means "beyond human." It's using science and technology to radically change and improve the human species and experience.

We didn't evolve through billions of years to remain animals.

Science and technology can solve all the world's problems, and historically it has been shown to make the world better and better.

TEF is predicated on logic, a simple wager that every human faces: If a reasoning human being loves and values life, they will want to live as long as possible-the desire to be immortal. Nevertheless, it's impossible to know if they're going to be immortal once they die. To do nothing doesn't help the odds of attaining immortality-since it seems evident that everyone will die someday and possibly cease to exist. To try to do something scientifically constructive towards ensuring immortality beforehand is the most logical conclusion.

Transhumanist technology will do much for the world that the world can't really imagine yet, including overcome some of the climate issues the world is facing.
