Cobie Posted January 13 (edited) Me too NDE. Others’ views: Simone de Beauvoir, ‘Tous les hommes sont mortels’. movie ‘Death Becomes Her’ Questions: Where will we all live when no one dies? Will we stop having children? Edited January 13 by Cobie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is a projection of your own state and is not shared among the wise and deeply experienced with whom I have studied and had the great fortune to share space with... I would not curse any being with true bodily immortality. Even a very long life comes with challenges that are hard to imagine in the heat and exuberance of youth. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Others’ views: Simone de Beauvoir, ‘Tous les hommes sont mortels’. movie ‘Death Becomes Her’ ... old people, those in pain .... but you young ones , dont worry about that , death is their domain , you others go out and play in the sunshine . Questions: Where will we all live when no one dies? 'Elon Musk Towers' , South Lava Tunnel , Mare Erythraeum . Will we stop having children? No, but they will be spindly , gravity starved , pale translucent , irradiated , AI controlled , biological automatons . 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is not big money, there are returns too? But why pressure the government in such an indirect way? Anyway I believe many rich and powerful people all over the world are spending 100 times and probably more per annum to prolong their lives. It would be useful to share their findings and experiences. As to movie and immortality, I think we have watched too many immortals, vampires stories that have very long lives, and the difficulties they encounter in the modern world.

It’s just harsh that the topic of biological immortality is being largely ignored. What do you think—should we organize rallies in the U.S. and demand answers from the government about why nothing is being done? It seems like... they're already working on it.

Over 20 years ago , a specialist doctor offered me medication for my 'condition' . He said it might make me more physically comfortable but the side effects where not good and the benefits would include prolonging my life maybe another 5 years in a nursing home when I get older . 5 years staring at the ceiling ? No thanks . I'll put up with the physical discomfort . Well, he changed totally after I said that ; "Off the record ; glad to hear it ! It just uses up or facilities and staff . So many people are scared of dying . You might have another good 20 years left anyway . " - and that was over 20 years ago ... and been a great 20 years ! When people ask how I am going I say 'Great ! Aside from the physical , but I value my healthy psychology and outlook and life view much more than that ! " I have said it before ; I live in one of the best countries and in one of the best areas in that country . people pay a fortune to come and stay here for a few days or a week a too , once a year . Its their reward for working hard all year and having to live elsewhere . residents have all sorts of facilities , potential fun, pristine nature from forest to beach, healthy food , services , etc etc . yet we have one of the highest levels of anti-depressant medications being distributed (per population ) in the state .

What's that about ! ? With the aging population, people tend not to be afraid of death these days. But they are generally having fear towards the last 10 years, seeing plenty of examples on the horrors of sickness and aging. My impression towards your place is full of giant crocodiles, big snakes, spider, great white, mosquitos... Which is the best place in your country to avoid all these?

Nungali Posted January 16 Any city I swim when ever I want - no crocs . I had a lovely beautiful big snake visit the other week , If they feel cold, they will curl up on your lap for a cuddle Result ? the possum got frightened and ran away ( she came back later ) . I fear tourist drivers this time of year more than 'great whites' . And mosquitos ...... yes, they are specifically an Australian issue What is more amusing is when these type of questions come from an American or Canadian , I often respond with , " Well, at least I dont have to take a shotgun with me to the outhouse ! " ...... and for people that think Australia is all desert and beaches , this is just down the road from me ; 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
