For similar reasons I don't care much for trans-humanist bull about near-immorality via uploading minds to computers.

That's pretty much it. It might make my nearest and dearest happier, but it wouldn't do anything for me personally. I'd be gone, gone, gone.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
