Respect of one's elders?
We can't even teach our own children that.

Please respond to sl4
Thanks to the people who drew attention to Theodore Sturgeon's book
"More than human". It's a great read and better still raises some really
important ideas.
What do people think of Sturgeon's ethical strategy/guidelines for
beings that are more capable/powerful than humans (developed in Part
3)??
He recommended an ethic of "reverence for your [evolutionary] sources
and your posterity" (ie. ones antecedents and decendents).
Cheers, Philip
