Including many GLPers. Well, I saw a thread the other day where a scienist was saying he believes we are 20 years away from immortality. Quoting: Charlie Scene If that truly is the case, and we will be living 2-3 times, maybe even 20 times longer, the elite will want to dwindle the population down. Can't really have 8 billion immortal beings breeding. Well, I saw a thread the other day where a scienist was saying he believes we are 20 years away from immortality.

Can't really have 8 billion immortal beings breeding. If we find the source of immortality, it will be controlled by the elite few. However, space exploration will again become a possibility. Theoretically immortality will come from mapping the human genome, and taking out the imperfections with genetic engineering (thus making our offspring, not us, immortal), replicating the brain including memory as AI, or nano-technology with a focus on creating cyborgs. Death is a ceasing of organs resulting in "brain death". Taking organic organs out of the equation...well... the problem with that is replacing the organs, you'd have to replace the veins. You'd need a way to circulate and oxygenate the blood to keep the brain saturated in it. We'd need to come up with a chemical way of preserving the brain without diminishing the synapses, and a mechanical way of remaining mobile. I'd say 30 - 50 years to BEGIN on this technology. There is already tons of work being done on this evil shit already. We are already immortal beings; our souls/consciousness is immortal the only things dying are our bodies. This type of transhumanism is going to be used as an eternal slave-hell on Earth. It might seem like it's for the greater good, or really cool or whatever, but the TRUTH remains that this is purely EVIL at its roots. Earth is but one stop on our conscious journey through the Universe so I advise that you don't get yourselves stuck here. There's a whole lot more to see out there. I do agree that society as we know is ever-increasingly fragile and it's definitely not sustainable for a whole lot longer. |

The good news is that, although Western education has the world in its grip, and that logic is the cornerstone to Western education, the wild card is that we have deduced a universe from logic alone. And that universe simply does not exist. ------ "And I understood that in an age where there was so much ego, because of the camera, that it was very important to look for that kind of player, ...

Of course we can, this galaxy (and others) has habitable places, we can all use the JUMP GATE to visit each other in the blink of an eye, use hologram calls, etc etc No worries, only our imagination (or lack of it) limits our reality. Why not listen to someone that should know... |

They had very cute voices but didn't talk with their mouths. They talked with their minds. They had almost elven or pixie voices. Oh yeah, once had a vision where I actually was one of them, a bunch of humans had been transformed, ormerged with them or something and we watched Earth as it was dying through a window as the space ship we were on pulled away.
