smart drugs of the futureLink for this Post: Are Smart Drugs the Answer to Bad Moods—and a Bad Economy? by Sherry Baker in Discover Magazine.

This is a wide ranging article about “smart drug’s” that covers a set of topics much broader than its title would suggest. Rather than excerpt one section and have you read the article. I will list a few of the highlights and then let you read it.

  • Recently introduced attention enhancing drugs such as Provigal and Modafinil
  • Current and future memory enhancement drugs including a group called the ” ampakines”
  • The creativity enhancing qualities of psychedelic compounds
  • transcranial magnetic brain stimulations to produce novel states of mind for creativity
  • Futurists and their interest in the potential of brain-changing compounds for future evolution

This is brief outline of an article that probably should be three chapters in a book with some words connecting the dots

    This idea of ‘smart drugs’ is just another toxic root of Transhumanism. GET smart and see through this crap. You don’t need drugs to do this just common sense!
