Aeon Flux: A Last Time for Everything

The scientific investigations of Trevor Goodchild provoke strong reaction from Aeon. This persecution of researchers is nothing new.

Trevor's regime holds scientific advancement to be of the utmost importance. His cloning program is relentless and this development has resulted in a greater understanding of identity and the role of personality in human endeavours.

Our own centres of research are more subjugated by comparison. Scientists have always been oppressed for their ability to discover truths that we may not like, or disprove beliefs that we hold dear. From Galileo to Ernest Armstrong McCulloch, the worth of scientists has been under valued.

Researchers and scientists should use all resources that are possibly available to them in order to improve the quality of our physical and spiritual lives. To deprive them of these means is to halt our quest for truth.

"The issue isn't excess, its access" and with free reign to investigate mankind we may access the very secrets of our existence.
