Consider the wonderful machine metaphor approach to all life. The reductive physicalism of this approach views organisms as nothing more than complicated machines composed of biomolecules engaged in biomolecular shenanigans. From this standpoint, you are nothing more than a computer made of meat living in a robot body made of muscle and bone. To be clear, there is no doubt that understanding the mechanisms associated with biomolecular processes, the functioning of the heart and the firing of neurons can be incredibly useful.
But now that use has past.
Back on Earth all those left behind will be lobotomized and sterilized.
