The author of this brief think piece appears to be unaware of substantial medical technology and efforts that have brought us to the point we can communicate with disembodied brains - and more to the point we are rapidly approaching being able to graft functioning brains into new physical bodies. The major objection has been our inability to reconnect the spinal cord - a procedure for which we have substantial progress and success, The point is we are much closer to putting a human brain into a new body that suggested by the very limited scope of this ethics professor paper. Warmest Regards, Sandy :)

Medical ethics are a very difficult topic. All the procedures we rely upon today were once very controversial, so it remains to be seen what comes of this.
Ok, movies and TV are generally fiction, I know... BUT.... Don't people learn ANYTHING from watching movies??? Playing God is BAD. If we were intended to live forever, we'd have been made that way... but no.. we weren't. That curse was placed upon creatures like the tortoise!
