Natural Science Forum / Physics / General Physics / July 2007can we live without death?
dear friends, i find it difficult to understand the affinity for death that seems to be all pervasive. the gods you worship give you pain and death. i choose not to die. i choose life eternal through science. will you join me? gloopencrotum <gloopencrotum@hotmail.com> wrote : > Subject: can we live without death?

If we found a way to trade years of life from one person to another, finally the poor would have a way of making a decent living.. > gloopencrotum <gloopencrotum@hotmail.com> wrote : > >> Subject: can we live without death? > > I must've misread this.

Actually they do. I consider certain members of sci.life-extension, including Tom/Paul Mathews/Wakfur to be zombies, as they appear to have no soul, as far as I'm concerned they are dead. So you can be dead to some things, alive to others. And for those of us who have seen the whole picture, we know that there is no death for humans, just taking on another form or existing in a work the materialists who belong to these groups couldn't understand. What are you going to eat if you remove death? /BAH > i find it difficult to understand the affinity for death that seems to > be all pervasive. the gods you worship give you pain and death. i > choose not to die. i choose life eternal through science. Out of fiction, Akallabeth has emerged right before our very eyes! The West has become the Numenor of the real world in so many ways. "The old wisdom borne out of the West was forsaken. Kings made tombs more splendid than the houses of the living and counted the names of their descent dearer than the names of their own sons. Childless lords sat in aged halls musing on heraldry, or in high cold towers asking questions of the stars. Withered old men sat in secret chambers mixing strange elixirs to achieve immortality, never achieving anything more than the art of preserving incorrupt the flesh of the dead. The line of Kings failed, the great city fell into decay and ruin like it predecessor Numenor, now drowned beneath the sea. The Gift of God, that men should not be forever bound to this world in hope or weariness like the Eldar, came to be seen as a curse, under the shadow of Morgoth and his minion Sauron who convinced Men that all that lies without is darkness." (Paraphrase combined from "Return of the King" and "Akallabeth") > dear friends, > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > will you join me? Unfortunately actuarially speaking you will be dead by 400 irrespective of what potential life span you may have. Probability is gonna get you!!!!!!! > > dear friends, > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > irrespective of what potential life span you may have. Probability is > gonna get you!!!!!!! i fear that despite my best efforts, some of us will still sucumb to the overwhelming lust for death. cloned organs are within easy reach. the next step is to perfect spinal regeneration in humans before proceeding with complete body replacements. this will involve delicate operations which have the potential to be recklessly performed by incompetant surgeons. one thing is clear, we will need many more surgeons and probably cheaper or free health care if everyone is to benefit from this revolution. |
