You believe the mind exists within the body, look at experience, right here and now, and see that the body occurs within the Mind.

Well- most mystics who claim to have experienced it do describe it as nameless and ineffable, ofcourse, but for the sake of communication we name it. Re: alternate dimensions, many people DO discuss them. So what's your point?
Your second point relies on a host of metaphysical assumptions. What I would say to you is that:
1) All we ever come into contact with is experience.
2) Most people would not call experience/qualia a material thing.
3) Notions of the kind of "reality" you describe are...

Unfortunately we will have to eventually because the world we are making is no longer for us basic humans. We need to next generations to be better prepared.
Without genetics for example, we may never be able to establish a colony on Mars or send the first human mission to Mercury or Pluto because humans are not made to live away from Earth.

Blair Underwood is the only black actor in the entire length of the film (black geneticist). According to the movie there is no discrimination but genetic discrimination so either we're being lied to because the organization hasn't hired a single black person in any position what so ever or the situation is even worse and black people have been phased out entirely in this dystopian future.

[@mightymoken]

there are several black employees in Gattaca. Even in the last shot in the space ship, one of the astronauts is black.

[@studybuddy3960]

@@mightymoken If that's true can you name the actors and cite their screen time? According to IMDB Blair Underwood is the only black actor with any lines in the film.
Having a few frames of black characters that play no role whatsoever besides existing for a few frames doesn't help much if you ask me.

There is something grotesque and unsettling about underwood’s screen presence, here. I thought it was really ironic (if that’s the right way to put it) to have a black man discussing and advocating for this procedure. To deny this as strange would fly in the face of our history. I wonder if they deliberately cast a black actor for this. This was a really great movie. Far better than what it’s been credited as.
