I Believe the Meaning of Life Is Life Itself
Would living forever be a good thing?
According to scientist Dr. Ian Pearson, immortality may be achieved by as early as 2050... For some of us.
Pearson expects we'll see the beginnings of immortality within the next few decades, but (initially, at least) it will be far too expensive for the masses:
"By 2050, it will only really be for the rich and famous. Most people on middle-class incomes and reasonable working-class incomes can probably afford this in the 2060s. So anyone 90 or under by 2060. If you were born sometime in 1970 onwards, that would make you 48 this year, so anybody under 50 has got a good chance of it, and anyone under 40 almost definitely will have access to this."
Seems rather selfish myself. The younger generation must be given the opportunity to stamp their mark on Planet Earth.
If we all lived forever then procreation would need to cease. Otherwise man would starve to death because feeding an ever growing population would be impossible.
Genetically altered to survive on solar energy?
