I generally agree, though could you/anyone please explain the freeing from morality aspect? Even on this I agree a lot of examples within the realm of morality will likely fall to the wayside, though I would assume there would be other examples we would have no matter how advanced. Not blowing up planets?

Morality does not exist outside of the conceptional and varies with each individual as its an objective indwelling experience; the question is why does developing life evolve religious behaviors such as faith and ritual? The next question being if our species transitions to synthetic or evolves past matter into the energetic; will this post-humanity life have the same need for ritual or faith? IMO the morality of the post-human is not something mortals can understand - we can only guess at what ethical principals will stand foundational post-singularity.
