Immortality Pill

[SavageArtistry]

Absolutely not. Life has not been kind to me as it is. Every day is a struggle. This argument is why I would also not wish to be reincarnated. To think that misery would go on forever is horrifying.

[RatB0Y68]

It would depend on the kind of immortality.

 

If it is biological immortality then yes. So long as I retain full biological functions (like healing from injuries) and continuity of identity.

[Revenais]

I think I'd go for immortality. It'd be fun and I imagine there would be colonization of other planets eventually, so Earth giving out wouldn't be all that big of a deal.

 

Though I'd really like a reincarnation deal, personally. One where I could remember who I was, but just keep going. That way, the world ending wouldn't be so big of a deal because I'd still die eventually.

[MooseTail]

Before I take this pill I wannt probably be around the age of 25 - 35. So I can drive, drink ect. Do pretty much everything in the world at those ages.

[Beriallord]

Not sure about being completely immortal, but if I could take a pill that would lets say extend my life span to being 10x that of a normal human I'd probably do it. But only if I aged in that proportion. Etc, at 300 years old, I would appear to be 30ish. I'd take the pill right now, seeing as how I'm in my 20s, which would mean I'd probably live another 300-400 more years. With that I would use the time to gain as much knowledge and skills as I could, and possibly contribute something really useful with my combined knowledge and mastery in different areas.

in a heartbeat

 

seriously

 

and people say "but think about friends and family, they would die away from you"

yeah, boo-hoo, grief can be over with in a matter of weeks, we're talking about _eternity_ here

[TotalRookie]

Nah I want to see what happens after death!

[thrill606]

I"d rather have a whole bottle of pills that make you immortal for 100 years, and after each 100 years I would decide if I wanted to take another one.

[rebalious]

Life has so much value because it is finite.

With that said I tend to live day-to-day in a rather meaningless fashion so bring it on!

 

It would get rather boring once all the energy in the universe had expended itself although that reimpose the feeling of life being finite.

[nofear88]

I would say Yes. Sure may get boring after a while but just the fact as seeing how things are turning out, like what path humanity will go and also how the Earth will progress.

 

Use Immortality as a way to study the universe and surroundings. Also help develop new tech if get smart enough.
