If you create what feels authenticate to you, it will fit in with humanity as a whole.
> 2. Religion as purpose.
I'd say purpose is drawn from philosophy in general, and religion is an instance of philosophy.
> 4. Justice.
There is a political dichotomy of merit-based systems vs. egalitarian systems. I lean towards merit, and equal opportunity.
> 5. Adequate regulation.
There is an overregulation bias. If in doubt, a new law is passed. This is especially harmful to innovation: see AirBnB, Uber/Lyft, Synthetic Biology.
> 6. "University education should not be a replacement for auto-didactic learning."
But the emergence of MOOCs makes autodidactic learning a possible replacement for university education. In an unbundled form, of course, as you still need to develop your network (w/o the campus) and build your reputation (w/o the degree).
> 9. Authenticity vs. social convention.
Again, given the dichotomy of authenticity vs. social convention, favor authenticity. ("if in doubt" is more of a stylistic element)
> "11. "Risk-avoidance is the riskiest strategy." does not fully respect the logic."
It would not, if we could control all of the risks. However, we cannot fully predict and avoid the occurrence of extreme events. Hence, it is better to embrace them via antifragile systems: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifragile. Moreover, not taking any seemingly high risks, usually leads to not making any progress at all - and stagnation is the ultimate risk.
> 12. Creative destruction vs. conservation
The comparison is to be understood on the level of "where should I, as an individual, focus my limited attention and energy on?" Environmentalism or Technology? Answer: Technology.
> 13. Technology-driven extinction
Many people primarily see the dangers of technology, whereas - imho - the benefits outweigh the costs. In fact, the opportunity costs of not advancing technology because of naysayers would be higher than the damage that is done by technology itself. (extinction is meant on the level of humankind)
> 18. "Humans will step over their biological limits, but that will threaten our cohesion on a species level."
Threat and opportunity usually go hand-in-hand.
