MoralityOfImmortality
Are you ever just sitting there, and this crazy, interesting thought pops into your head....
If you had the power to grant Immortality to a HumanBeing, would you give it to everyone regardless who it is; or a select few, the wealthy, the powerful, the intelligent?
As an Addendum: You know, immortality isn't far down the road. Scientists are experimenting with cloning now, what's next?
I'd give it to me. There is nothing wrong with immortality, I wouldn't mind living forever, but if we have a limited food supply we should feed the young first, they are the future, us old farts are obsolete. It will be interesting to see how humanity deals with the problem. Are there are more people alive today than have died in recorded history? If not there will be soon. Myself, I'd be happy populate MarsFrontier and beyond. --JimScarver
