Voyager recruit 0 Posted January 26, 2009 As somene said previous here, 'fascinating'. Me, I would say that, only in a verrry extreme sense could one go near the'cyborg' handle. As someone else said Mr. Clark had an organ-but only one.Even if a human took upon multilpe replacements, he would, even in the 24th century, likely be classified from a biological assesement as a human. I rather would look at it as what you are when you star out in this world-not necessarily what you become. Data was constructed as an andriod, even with all his marvelous development as a sentient, and increasingly 'rich' person in his own right, he technically was still an android.Cyborgs, in the broader sense to me, are beings who are SO altered-even if one started out fully human-as to be far less recognizable as human. The Bynars had some serious things done with their cerebral structures, but otherwise they were organic beings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr.Picard 12 Posted September 16, 2010 I'd suggest a PM for a DETAILED answer, though. Family board! But yeah. The expert says he's not a cyborg. The only thing about him that is artificial is his heart. In a literal sense only. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
