Why?

Says who?

And if there is?

Why wouldn't they be immortal as well? If you're referring to people dying of non-natural causes, that's not really any different than the way things are now.
> Why would you wanna live on such a shit planet for such an extended period?
I'd like to see the planet become less shit.

> First off... your probably one of the three stooges right? Lol you have to be. Cmon.
Soitenly!
> Secondly. The why. Is quite obvious. Its in front of your face think a little harder. There is reasoning for us not being able to live on this crummy little rock forever. Particularly for the reasoning that our sun implode on itself.
I don't expect Earth to last forever.
> And every second we live makes the world worse on its own so far. Havent you seen histories effects? this is literally something that is a fact. No matter how much you deny it. Its not going away. End of.
Most of us aren't making the world worse, though. Our biggest problems come from a small number of billionaires that ruin the planet because they know they won't be alive in a century to deal with the consequences.
> The second question. since you probably wont accept a higher being and probably dont believe in it.
You don't know what I believe.
> Lets just say me, every ledgeable philosopher ever and the earth itself as well as nature.
Nature doesn't have medicine, corrective lenses, or indoor heating. Should we get rid of those things as well?
> Third. This is the dumbest one yet. this is the nature of our discussion isnt it? The whole reasoning you presented this farce to me?
My point is that if you believe that lifespan extension isn't possible to begin with, it doesn't make sense to say researching it should be illegal.
> Fourth if they were youd be forcing it on them. which by all rights is wrong as well.
Why couldn't they choose to extend their lifespans as well?
> fifth The planet gets old too stupid. now thats something you can plain do nothing about. Your farce done with now pls?
Longer lifespans would make space travel a more realistic possibility in the event of Earth's demise.
