Want to live forever?

[Masquerouge]

Well I would not. It would get very lonely after the first century, realizing all your friends and loved ones are going to die around you...

 

[Heretic_Cata]

That's a great song Sidhe.

 

[Perfection]

The chance to grow incredibly (more) wise.

I think you'd just end up geting even more senile


As for me: I could go for a good long while on this planet before I get bored.

 

[BCLG100]

if you could live forever would that mean then that you couldnt die?

e.g.you fell into a volcano?

Well, I figure this would be clinical immortality, so you don't die barring accidents.

Na you have the choice, Elven immortality I.e. get riddled with arrows and you die, and true immortality, you are invulnerable, infinite clones which transfer conciousness at the point of death, or just cellular regrowth from a single cell. Thinking about it's fairly unfathomable how you could truly live for ever anyway; the universe will die one day I suspect.

 

[Elrohir]

No thanks.

 

[Eukaryote]

Option 2 for me, I want to experiance everything life has to offer but I do want to get to heaven one day. Plus everyone who chooses option 3 will have to be in nuclear wars or something worse to live through and when the sun explodes the people who choose option 3 will suffer extreme cold and darkness for all eternity.

 

[The 777 Hoax]

I chose option 2 as well. I'd do tons of interesting stuff, and when I get bored, just leave.

 

[Narz]

Hey wait a minute, arent you like Johnny Natural over there? What could be more unnatural than a few people being immortal?

Immortal cyborgs mabe? That's ElMachinae's goal, right? And where is that fellow anyway?

It is when you learn to recognize suffering when you see it, or experience it, and understand everything the word encompasses, or alot of it anyway.

But everything in the world encompasses beauty too, does it not? Shoot, even suffering can be beautiful (although usually in retrospect and/or from a distance).

I never said anything about things being cheerier. Clearer, yes.

Is it necessary to see every little speck on dirt on your kitchen floor with cyrstal clarity?

In case you want my answer, I stopped wearing my glasses years ago. I still sweep once a week but am happier in the interim.

Some of us are already there, eh?

 

[bhsup]

I just have to laugh at that kind of attitude.
Just glad my life is not so miserable as this.

You have my pity.

.

You'd sail against the west instead of gladly accepting the gift of Ea, wouldn't you.

Remember Numenor, and it's fate!

 

[thetrooper]

What Elrohir said.

 

[CoolioVonHoolio]

does living forever mean you cant die? like you could get shot in the head 1000 times point blank with a pump shotgun? or go to the bottom of the ocean? if it did than count me in.

 

[tomsnowman123]

Death is part of the natural cycle of life. It happens. So no, I wouldn't want to live forever.

 

[CurtSibling]

I'm gonna go with something like Bozo said, I wouldnt mind an extra century or two, but I better grow old after that, and die naturally, because I'm religious, and sucicide is definietly not included in that package ( its the coward's way out, too)

It is incredible how religious people are so trained to reject human greatness.

'Never aspire, never be proud, never do anything that raises you higher'

What a miserable way to exist...

[Azash]

What a miserable way to exist...

So is an eternity without death.

 

[zanahoria]

I would.... I mean, that's "just one more turn" forever

 

[CurtSibling]

So is an eternity without death.

If you want death, then you should not choose eternal life.

[Azash]

Why should I do either when I can do both?
