My body hates me at the moment, so can I have a new one please?
the way each generation seems to be worse than the previous one makes me feel its a good job you you get older it beggars belief how humans treat each other.
Theme song for the the thread...
Nope when my time is done i hope it passes very very suddenly
If you lived forever, your life would be one long procession of other peoples funerals.
What a great question! I'm reading a book at the mo which covers (fictionally) some of the ramifications of extending life.
There are all sorts of things to consider. For example, if people stopped dying where would we get the reasources (food/shelter/energy etc) to support them?
If the life-extending process/drugs/whatever was expensive (which it undoubtedly would be) would it cause another two-tier class structure? How could we justify life extention for some nations while the third world continued to die early as they do now?
And as people get older wouldn't they want to hang on to things like jobs, homes, money etc. Life for the young would become one long wait for things they're never likely to achieve.
I for one would like to get a few more years out of life, but not if I can't have my health with it. Who would want to extend the agony of old age and infirmity?
Yes please, but fit, healthy and not degenerating into a sponge.
wouldnt mind being frozen and let loose hundreds of years later.
see whats happened and see if this global warming thing is a tax fiddle.
And on another slant to this, read John17 verse3 !!
Now that is food for thought!!!
Jesus Prays for Himself
1After Jesus said this, he looked toward heaven and prayed: "Father, the time has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you. 2For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal life to all those you have given him.3Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.4I have brought you glory on earth by completing the work you gave me to do. 5And now, Father, glorify me in your presence with the glory I had with you before the world began.
