Wonderful, that story came right from the soul! But you seem somewhat focussed on the sexual aspects of future creations, whatever is in the future can impossible be much worse than a hooker in a cheap motel, keep that in mind. And do not forget that S. Hawking gambled about the existence and creation of our universe, for a subscription on the private eye and the playmate (important to notice: he won). So science is showing some good developments, in our benefits.
