Aging happens because your body is slowing down and dying.

Not when your living forever...

Teru please, I get you
But your out of your league
Thinking your way of life depends on an end
How can it be?
See
Time is just a concept
Death is ending the self
Immortality is being here for the whole thing
Propelled, to continually progress
For all eternity, yes
Dont stress on the petty issues
Remember whats next
Is just eternity as either another cycle or less
Your 'self' could end up as nothing & despite what youve read
From teachings in the bible or zen
This currant life is a mystery
Future present & history aint shit to me
Literally dont you get it?
Dont be dependant on your mortal emotions
& Get your mind out those primordial oceans

My way of life does not depend on anything.

Self could end up as nothing? Thats the whole point, to get rid of the self.

All you basically said was you'd want to be immortal to "be here for the whole thing." Crap, superficial reason man.

All I basically said?

All I basically said was........

Why bother dying?

The only thing we can be sure its good for is decreasing population in this world.

Nah if you were immortal, aging wouldnt make sense. But let me first say that immortality in the first place doesnt make sense.

Death gives life the tiny shred of meaning that it has. Immortality would make life more useless than it already is.

How would being immortal take away a meaning for life?

Terumoto 09-25-06 04:43 AM

Because you're doing something pointless for an infinite amount of time? What is more meaningless than that?

Sorry man...

But life is a lot less pointless than youve trained your mind to think...

Terumoto 09-25-06 04:48 AM

Tell me the point of life.

No, tell me the point of life... Not the point of your life, not the point of anybody else's life. The real point of life.

Everyone is connected by many central aspects..

But we are all here for different reasons...

Including those who are immortal.

Mad Dog 09-25-06 05:02 AM

here's one thing...

immortality sounds like a good thing

BUT

people see it as they'd never age...

BUT

what if you chose immortality unaware that you'd continue to age???
