What is your idea about DEATH?
staceyboy3:
I guess eternal life wouldn't be boring if one had ambitions to progress in growth of knowledge and love...
Depends on one's attitude towards life...

if we gonna keep growing old then yea, as soon as we hit the 60-70 milestone then i'd rather commit suicide than live as an over-dependent baldie who needs a stick to walk around for a couple hundred years
BUT, if i can keep the physicuq of my youth then nah actually it will keep getting more exciting

Many people are ambitious... But where eternity is concerned, the question to be asked is: Till how long can they remain ambitious?
Knowledge and love, once people would have attained them, they would need other 'ambitions' to survive...
@Omer
Yup, I wouldn't be surprised if you committed suicide... Now even when life is so short, many people find reasons to kill themselves... Now imagine when living would be forever... ;D
Your physique... ::) Still am unsure, <more and more exciting>, for how long "exciting"??
Ya, maybe for space exploration, eternal life is gonna be 'profitable'... The intelligentsia will be there forever (like Leonardo)... But the fools would also be there (like Hitler)...
People should also stop producing... We would need free space for the unborn else!

not just space, but science and research in general would be gaining quite a lot of benefit, but on the other hand, having so much greats from the renaissance could have putted of some of the more contemporary science greats like Madame Currie or Einstein for example. and yea well the fools can always be jailed with apes or whatever lol

and yea about how long will it be exciting, its gonna be exciting for quite a lot of time
one thing that i am sure ill do if i can live eternally will be explore the entire world, country by country, culture by culture, i am sure this will take me nothing less than a decade if not more. then theres also trying all proffessions, spend 2 decades as a doctor, then a decade as a software engineer, then a dozen at a high school, then another dozen at university teaching, then a dozen as a researcher, then maybe turn around to sports, be a footballer for a dozen years, then a track & field athlete, then go for gymnastics, then swimming then synchronized swimming, then turn around for the dreamy world and go for being an author then a painter then a sculptor and so on....
so all in all if i can live eternally, i am fairly sure that i will live happily for at least 150-250 years :D
