      Genes are most certainly bound by certain rules. More we dig in to messing with them, more we find this to be true. CRISPR will probably be a dud for this reason, ppl got hyped on shitty Chinese studies and now we’re finding ppl have natural resistance to CRISPR mechanism.

      Right. They also haven't even scratched the surface on epigenetics or protein quaternary structure.But if artificial intelligence is worth anything, it will solve these issues as well. Meantime, where are the robot tire changers and furniture movers? For a start.

      I am a scientific layman, only somewhat knowledgable about these things on that level. I do not believe in putting such faith/optimism in technology or human will to improve man, I think history has shown the error of that project.

      I completely agree, and think that the emphasis on genetic determinism on the right (the real right, not the official right) is just repackaged Calvinism (and some NEET escapism.) Hence the original comment.

      Well, then you should be a big fan of the current Western setup, since it's basically Calvinism 101

      Moldbug's ultracalvinism schtick comes from a deep ignorance of religious/theological thought.

      @QuasLacrimas has written about this. He was going more from tropes about and caricatures of Calvinism than the real thing. He ignored the deists and unitarians, much better fit for predecessors to today’s progs, and instead blamed Puritans for some reason.

      The best "fit" for prog ideology is Stoicism, rly Anyway here's one post, but I wrote a bunch on this topic:https://quaslacrimas.wordpress.com/2017/08/01/on-puritans-and-progs-july-2017-draft/ …

          Do you plan on writing on the prog/stoic connection? Has anyone written on it previously? Can you direct me to any material?

          dm me and we can chat about it - i discuss it w/ the commenters in some of the "origins of progressivism" posts, but i haven't blogged on it and i doubt i will over the summer
