Would you like to be immortal? Why/why not?

It depends on the basis of the immortality.  If I am an old man, incapable of walking, eating, and breathing on my own and just laying in a bed unable to die, I would not choose such a life.  If i were to remain healthy, young, and able while everyone else grew old and died, I would bear the responsibilities of my position to society as the person who would be able to go on living and teaching others, etc.  If I were able to be immortal and so were everyone else, that would be a rockin good time.

I will live as long as the Good Lord wants me here.\n\nI hope to die fast and not slow.  I do not care if I grow old and feeble, as long as I still have my right mind.. after that, I just prefer to go see God.

If I can 'live forever' why do I have to die first?

Yes I do.\nYou could be one of the richest people in the world, and be able to buy what you want when you want, but have a crippling disease that makes you unable to go out and about. Or you could be poor yet be able to enjoy the heat of the sun, the smell of the air, the beautiful colours that surrounds us in nature!\n\nI know what I would sooner have....... and as far as I am concerned my health and the love of my family make me one of the richest people alive.

I would like to live in a future era where disease and illness have been eliminated.  Where all people and nations live harmoniously and in peace.  I wish it could be the near future, but I have this feeling it will not happen for many centuries.

If I were in good health I would love to live to be 120 - I would say 200, but that is not realistic - 120 isn't really realistic, either, but it IS possible and it is the longest I can say without sounding too too silly!  Key is being in good health, though.  It would also be totally cool if my husband and other family members and friends could stay around with me....wouldn't that be a kick?

i would like a heaven on earth, but not a heaven in which you live, as you said, eternally.  i personally would like to cease to exist completely after i die.  but i guess sometimes it would be nice to see my great-great grandchildren or something.

living to be 100,would be OK,as long as you had your mind,didn't have to be in a rest home,or at least be able to take care of yourself pretty much . no machine hook-ups to keep you alive.

ask yourself this would you want to die at 60 say you had children if not already do don't you want to see them in future and grandchildren i mean if you life a honest and happy life you should want to live as long as possible and for having allot of older people in life is where wisdom comes from i think. My  great grandmother was the smartest person i knew and she died at the age of 98  I'm glad to have met her and if she died at 60 i would have never had that chance and the wisdom she gave me.

What, now I thought that you were an immortal being, the immortal can not get anything.\nbut your average blood drinker should definately make them get a blood test.

I would rather be a vampire, because there is something very alluring and erotic about being a vampire...Promise of immortality and always 'catching your din-din' so to speak.

Immortality is not possible in our current bodies.  Several reasons why.  1)  You'd have to be able to stop the body from aging at some point during it's lifetime 2)  You'd have to eliminate all toxins and pollutions from entering the body at any time during it's lifespan  3)  You'd have to provide perfect care and conditions for the body  4)  You'd have to maintain the heartbeat and breath of the body along with all other needed functions of the body  5)  You'd have to have the ability to heal the body should anything try to disrupt the state of immortality

Some think that it would be boring to live forever. They may point out the monotonous life of many retired people who have little to do but sit and stare at the television screen. If that is how you feel, consider what astronomer Robert Jastrow said when asked if everlasting life would be a blessing or a curse. Jastrow replied: “It would be a blessing to those who have curious minds and an endless appetite for learning. The thought that they have forever to absorb knowledge would be very comforting for them. But for others who feel they have learned all there is to learn and whose minds are closed, it would be a dreadful curse. They’d have no way to fill their time.”

Everlasting life? Isn't that what we are promised by God? It's sort of the same as asking "Do you or Would you believe" \nI believe I would. There are certain people who absolutely LOVE life. Everything about it, even the pain and suffering that comes with it. There is beauty in everything. I am one of those people. I LOVE to learn. I learn everything I can all the time. I will always learn and grow and never tire of life or what it has to offer. I would welcome the opportunity to live forever. \nDeath is part of the plan, a process in the journey of our souls. Just like birth, adolescence or graying hair. It may be the end, or the beginning depending on how you see it. But it is inevitable either way.

This is a big assumption but I would wish for the following. I would wish to remain healthy and have my loved ones around me. I also would wish to live comfortably with all my loved ones healthy as well.
