The only difference is that we have an overblown processing machine called the brain that adds extra steps to the whole thing.

Yes, but that one alone makes a huge, huuge difference. At least my personal view is that we are indeed unique and special, so is every human being, and as such, I value them really much.

Concepts like free-will go to trash.

No it doesn't, it's just the line is what becomes thinner. This is called transhumanism, the redefinition of human.

It doesn't make it more or less human.

Our reality is nothing more that a facade of mirages that we have created in order to be able to go on.

Is it a problem? I mean, I'm not denying your relativism because I somewhat agree and am thinking on the same line.

But as you said, in the end, what matter is that how do we react.

And I can understand, how sexuality has changed over the years, and even that it real human can be substituted when it comes to partners.

Yet, it means nothing for me. My personality rigorously implies the methods I approach humans, and it includes the fact that sex is an extremely intimate and more importantly, invaluable experience for m.

It's not being naive, but the consequence of my psyche as a whole, and I don't think I'm inherently better or worse for it.
