RE: Are We Getting Close to the Possibility for Eternal Biological Life? Maybe YES!
My assertion is actually a theological one, and I mean that originally the biological substance making up our bodies was not designed to die by itself. The dying comes from the fact that something is not working right, i.e., corruption was introduced. But I'm sure fully exploring that dynamic is beyond the scope of this post. I just find it interesting that we can make scientific observations and learn more fully the actual mechanism behind aging and dying, as well as recognize possibilities out there for slowing that process down or even reversing it :)
Understood! Although I have no arm into theology, but I do respect others do, and understand completely the rational you have fro that angle. How cool in the end it'll be when all what we believe can be proven and turns out the be the same. That is one of the reasons I would opt to take the pill for eternal life :)
I definitely love seeing science confirm some of my beliefs, or even more basically, showing us the details of how nature works. But no matter how much can be demonstrated, proved, and shown scientifically, I expect there will always be mystery to ponder--things we don't quite understand, and things that we can understand on a basic level but couldn't every fully plumb the depths of.
agree, and that makes life interesting :)
