The plural lives of singular species

Acta Sanctorum - deeds of the saints - having been exhaled all the exclamation marks that a human can, when I learned something about second life from one of my very close friend. Second life, a new technology that will create a virtual world around us that will absorb everything that surrounds us. The world is changing, or in fact the human species are changing the world. The change is for better or worse - the question that later generation will answer. The constant effort to draw ourselves from reality to virtuality somewhat, on the contrary, draws us to much realer world.
But the question is - where in this ever-changing world humans will find themselves ?
The flesh to flesh conversation is already lost, now we chat. Does the same would be applied to human relations - think of another family in virtual world.
If imagination is allowed freedom, then all my exclamations would be appropriate.
Even if such change is inevitable, anno domini to anno regni - from the year of lord to year of reign - we will be - barba tenus sapientus - wise as far as the beard. Humans will always be humans, no matter where we live
But its still unanswered - how many among ourselves are humans ?
The disfigurement of human identities has already brought us closer to inferior species. Currency becoming the only goal of survival. From dawn to dusk the only act : self charm.
The human faces have become symbol of something lost. & that which is lost can be found, if found, the humans will attain their humanity & not godliness that has been preached since centuries.

Until then, no matter, virtual or real, humans will be humans.
