In Response To: Re: Thoth's Origins and the Jjaro (PerseusSpartacus)

: "Until now, sentience had always required
: cyber-organic symbiosis. All of our
: science has led to this conclusion."

: The first impression I got was that this means the Jjaro must have been a
: "cyber-organic symbiosis" (cyborg). Otherwise, I don't see how
: the S'pht would've started this assumption in the first place. But Thoth
: is just metal and hardware, and doesn't have any organic parts in him
: whatsoever (as far as we know of?). Thus, Thoth couldn't be (a) Jjaro.

: Since Yrro = Jjaro and Jjaro is a race, we could assume the Jjaro and Pthia are both races, fleeing the
: W'rkncacnter together. Perhaps as an experiment or something, they collect the S'pht from some other
: place and put them on Lh'owon. The S'pht, as servants, utilized the Jjaro/Pthian machines to terraform
: Lh'owon.

I think the connection between the Jjaro, Pthia and S'pht helps prove that the Jjaro and maybe even the Pthia were a race of cyborgs. Why? There must have been some form of visual, perhaps even physical, contact between the S'pht, Jjaro and maybe the Pthia. Thus, why would they make a scientific assumption that sentience requires a "cyber-organic symbiosis" in the first place?

At this point, one may argue that the S'pht weren't intelligent enough to note the presence of "cyber-organic symbiosis" in the Jjaro and Pthia. But in fact, they were: if they're intelligent enough to utilize and perhaps even build such complex machines as the Jjaro and Pthia would have used, obivously they can notice the "cyb-org symbiosis" and begin making assumptions about sentience and its link to cyber-implants.

Now, as I said before, given that the Jjaro are cyborgs and Thoth is not a cyborg, Thoth is not a Jjaro.
