Even if you could wish for eternal youth, with the health and wealth to enjoy it, would an eternal life be a curse more than a blessing? Is there anything you could imagine doing, even in heaven, that wouldn't drive you to distraction after a few millennia?
antinephilehi 30-Apr-11, 14:18	Yes. Counting 1 2 3 4 5...... Always a new number I never used before. Other then that....Who knows?
rilke 30-Apr-11, 14:39	nightmare The person who has immortality will still suffer knowing that he or she has too see his/her love ones perish. The is punishment enough ! Is like being a good vampire. Money,health and eternal youth can't bring life to family and friends .
miffymork 01-May-11, 04:32	The majority of the population want to live. Providing one is healthy and has enough to afford an average lifestyle i cant see any reason to voluntary kick the bucket
obsteve 08-May-11, 14:54	Hi Neph Counting, you kidding me? Could you even count for week solid without going nuts? Rilke, I'll grant your loved ones eternal life too- and I reckon after a few thousand years that seeing them perish wouldn't seem such a bad idea... Miffy, while I agree that your average lifespan is not nearly enough (I think I'd like about 700 years on earth instead of a measly 70), I also think that we would be also queuing up for voluntary suicide at around 7000 Eternity is a long time!
antinephilehi 09-May-11, 10:26	Not really sure eternity IS time. "We bury people at 75 who died when they were 50". As long as there is a better reason to live then die,I think I go on living. When I get to be 80 I will probably be a diferent person,and probably my way of looking at things.
easy19 10-May-11, 14:03	with a wink ;) The current lifespan is to short   The world we (i) live in makes it short 12 years going to school to educate for your future 45 years of work to provide yourself with food home and health care add 4 years of freedom childhood 0 to 5 and you are 62 in the end and then you have a average of 10 years left to enjoy your old days. I think that sucks I like to at least double the max age say 150 years...( if i may choose i would pick immortality whiteout even thinking.. ) I hope to reach to 99 years at least.. I also know that 33% of your life is wasted by sleeping 8 hours a day..(33 years of your already short life). I am sleeping only 4 to 5 hours a day for almost 27 years now.. and i hope to sleep only 26% of my live (25.5 years) so i already have almost 8 years more time then the average person.

antinephilehi 24-Sep-11, 23:12	Celebrities God in his heaven is supposed to live for ever. But who can say he knows Gods mind? Woke up with toothache this morning.So lets lay out some ground rule:Non of that in living forever   Wanting to live forever,all depends on what life that will be.Who can say about that? We all want a meaning full life.Whether short or long. But with immortal life,what would you Americans debate? No sickness-No health care bill. So untill the immortal problem is here :Carpe Diem.
