Trancending Humanity

This is an interesting game about transcendence, this company makes a lot of interesting/trippy games.

The thought of transcendence came up in ancient, medieval, and now modern times. What I wonder is if we will transcend like our ancestors did or are we done. I question the the thought of us transcending with many factors holding us back including ignorance, religious beliefs, fear, emotion. I believe if we were to transcend it would be beyond any we've ever seen before, the next movement for our species would be so magnanimous that we might not even act as we normally did with languages, courtship, loss of emotions such as fear. I believe if we did move beyond our current state we would have to leave human emotion behind as a whole, things such as fear prevent us from discovering, creating, QUESTIONING.
I don't think people understand where this society can go with the loss of emotion, the scientific advances. The loss of simple competition, when our society learns that competition is a primitive action we will experience great transcendence above our primitive past, this being only a step in a staircase. We need to understand that there are other ways to achieve the euphoria of winning against another, that we do not need simple things such as a baseball game or putting another person down for their flaws. Why not explain to that person what their flaws are using a psychoanalytic approach and explain why that flaw is present and how to fix it.
