Us humans are an interesting species. We lack thick fur, strong limbs, and sharp talons, but our intelligence for tool making make this unnecessary developments; we are able to live almost anywhere on this Earth without much trouble. With that understanding, you could almost say we already are hybrids. Clothing and tools are [i]essential and inseperable[/i] parts of our life, as they enable us to safely live in regions where it is occasionally or always inhospitable to our existence. Of course, this technology is not permanent, but I am comfortable that that is only a matter of time. We wish to develop faster than evolution allows, and it's only a matter of time until we start messing with our wetware, probably starting on a genetic level, making our selves more resilient against disease and decay, then moving full-fledged into a body augmentation level of technology.

Transhumanism, its obviously the next logical step of a 'forced' human evolution.
