CYBORG CULTURE

The cyborg can create homage to a super-human being. Possible candidates include two major contributors to the cyborg evolution. Philip K. Dick, best known for his 60's speculative books, including the Hugo Award-winning "The Man in the Hign Castle" and "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" is a viable candidate because of his vision of the cyborg. The vision has been viewed as the pathway to the heavenly state of a cyborg society. As a prophet, like Moses, he has parted the oceansof thought and fiction to lead his followers to a promised cybernetic land. Another possible choice is Bill Gates who has contributed to the growing intellect of computer processing and creation of the extensions that McLuhan believed necessary to become part of the technological environment.

Does the cyborg reinvent religion? By becoming part of the environment and interacting among each other, the cyborg increases its influence upon one another as individuals. The cyborg acquires many god-like qualities. Cyborgs can...
.........be in multiple places simultaneously?
......create and define their own images and personas?
...impact others with more power than the common man of the earlier twentieth century?
............even see their own images in the same manner as a god who looks at what it has created?
