Kirk seeks 'superman' technology watchdog to rein in scientists

This article confronts us with the following revelation:

A group called "Transhumanists" believe humanity should start to artificially improve itself, and there have already been some tentative experiments.

Sweet holy god! Who knew? Someone must stop them! Stop them now! Before it's too late!

(And "Transhumanists" is a hazy label, not an organization. Reading the "superman" article, one gets the impression we're dealing with something along the general lines of the Church of Scientology.)
