You are making the same mistake that all secular ideology inevitably falls into. As paradoxical as it sounds, here we should learn more from the big religions: every time a group of fanatics goes crazy, the mainstream imposes a different name on them and splits them from itself; in this way, the madmen become a sect, and the "coherent side" can keep the original name. The problem is that the secular do not love ideas as much as the religious love God, they care more about their own image, they choose to split themselves and create their own ideology with blackjack and hookers rather than stepping firmly and defending the dignity of the projects that they support. Your posts on Future Timeline were a great source of inspiration for me to become a singularitarian many years ago, and to happen to find you on Reddit saying this, giving up the Singularity because you find yourself unable to put up a fight against the retard techno-religious, well... I'm disappointed. Regards.
