I actually bought Kurzweil's book "The Singularity is Near" back around 2006 because it sounded interesting. Over the years I realized he and his friends were just like the Rapture Kooks.

It makes me very angry that Tech and Rapture Kooks are now in total control of not only the US but the fucking world and they are trying to bring about The End. They don't care about other people who don't believe or one single animal or plant that is going extinct on this planet.

How did this happen?
