Uncle John here: I just pulled down a book from one of my bookcases titled "The Oracle of Man," 1994, Brisebane Australia, by Paul Phillips. ISBN 0 646 24438 0
Interestingly enough, it does not come up under a
www.amazon.com search. One would have thought that amazon would have indexed the whole ISBN.
It did come up in google:

Starting from page 39:
Quote:
Mankind has already begun to create and evolve his own next surrogate life form.
Man is developing his own next evolutionary step.
He will have in fact, when successful, added a metamorphic step in his own life cycle.
Yes, mankind is unwittingly (although I believe this has not happened by accident) doing all of the above. I believe he is. In fact, I know he most definitely is.
Mankind has become the creator.
In truth, "the creator of his own saviour."
Future generations, (or sooner) will be able to upload "you" into a Technological Life Form. TLF's will be able to be created, if desired, with no intrinsic intelligence and so "you" will be able to assume the intelligence of the life form.
"Living inside a computer... is that what he is suggesting?"
Yes, I am.
