Author Topic: POLL: Would you like to be Immortal, or atleast live thousands of years?  (Read 3713 times)

the bigger problem with immortality is that it just goes on into infinity. the universe will end and you'll be drifting through nothing, alone with your thoughts.
I think that'd be great. I mean if you've got millions of years I'm sure you'd get used to the passage of time, probably long before the end of the universe
and then you can wait for the next universe or whatever to start

how is death better than eternal life when the supposed suffering is subjective. I mean I'd love nothing more than to be conscious for the rest of infinity.

Immortality

maybe in some occasions i'd become bored as hell but time will pass all the same and i'll get to see some cool stuff every so often.

Unless you die really young its going to happen immortality or not.
But in your normal life-span you'll only see a relatively small amount of loved ones pass away.
If you're immortal it happens again and again with each generation.

I would be immortal, but it requires invulnerability and no aging.
I don't want to spend eternity in a deteriorating body.

maybe immortality is like the elves in lotr/hobbit, you don't die of old age but you can still get killed

Not very fun. You're guaranteed to be killed by something if you live long enough. Probably something painful.

Definitely live for several thousand years. That'd be awesome, just to think of the adventures I could have, getting to see human civilization advance over time.

I don't see the problem with immortality at all. Yeah, witnessing my family die would be horrible, but even if I chose to live a normal life, I would likely see them all die anyway. My dad, my mom, grandparents, brother, aunts, uncles, cousins, all of them. Pretty much everyone in my family is far older then me, so being immortal would just let me see cool stuff. Or maybe the destruction of humanity, but still. I feel like the downsides of it are severely outweighed by the upsides.

I wanna forget bitches forever. Immortality man!

Immortality because I can pass on the gene and bam half of the human race is immortal. I can also clone them into an immortal army and take over the universe.

This implies you also know how to get laid.

When the day comes you two will be the first to die :((

This also implies your children (who couldn't exist) would get laid (they wouldn't)
