I think we can leave compassion to the psychiatrists and just have logical and sensible politicians. I would like to see an Atheist as prime minister, since it is estimated that two thirds of the population doesn't really believe in a higher power. They just say they do because of the consequences of confession.

Logically eugenics is the way to go, though that doesn't take it far enough. The ultimate way to eradicate humanity's problems is to eradicate humanity. Skynet for president!

If there is a God he played a joke on humans. The joke is: the smartest people can produce the dumbest children, and the dumbest people can produce the smartest children, and everything in between. When it comes to eugenics the fundamental problem is; who will oversee the project and what do you do about the greedy and unethical people?

An intriguing question! I nominate AI to run human affairs. It couldn't do a worse job than humans have. 😈 Actually it would be really nice to see women running things for a change--preferably secular women so there's a higher chance they'll believe in a long-term future instead of an impending apocalypse.

As to the problem of greedy/unethical people, it's who and what we are. They are traits that were naturally selected for. It's baking into the recipe, so we're kind of fxcked for it.

Yup!
