Calculating odds

No comments
The probability to be born at the beginning of the apocalypse is growing with each new child on the ground. As strange as this phrase did not sound, but it's true. Imagine a line. Each new division of her, a man. If the line is infinite, it does not matter how many parts we divide it. But what if it is the limit? The more divisions (men), the closer the final feature will move in our direction. Or are we to it. Especially there is no difference, as the distance is reduced, and we know that the universe is not infinite, and can be a lot of different factors that will erase the planet into dust. But is it?
What is the chance that the apocalypse will be the end, the final point of mankind? How can we be sure that die out, finish the journey of life? After all, there are safer options for the future. Mankind may disappear, but remain its representatives. Those who are able to adapt to new conditions, having changed only superficially, gaining more features and sacrificing something of their own.
Technology gives us the ability to modify the DNA, add artificial limbs, to experiment with consciousness and develop the industry in which a person offers a chance for a new life. You do not have to give up such human characteristics as detailed palette of feelings, the concept of honor, valor and morals. But sooner or later, we will be forced to abandon the bodies. On his deathbed, under the surgeon's knife, taking regular medication - we interfere in the functioning of the organism.
Today, we can improve ourselves voluntarily. Not in order to survive. But sooner or later, we may need it.
