for the first time, human-like biological immortality has been praised in a show.
Think about it, there is no reason why a conscious species would not evolve to immortality. Death is the end. Keep going and having fun, right? Why not?

Human pysche breaks down
Even if you could keep the body going, the mind will eventually crack
Will never happen. It's merging with AI or extinction.
Brainlet take.
>4. It's an obscenely narcissistic idea that you should stick around forever and pollute the future with your current year beliefs and worldview
An other brainlet take that death is necessary because people can't change their beliefs.
>Better that the entire species go extinct than that a single organism escape into arbitrarily long perpetuity.
A very dumb post by a butthurt loser.
Immortality is one of the moron filters. If you are against immortality you fail the filter. The only problem is that our current understanding of reality indicates it's not possible. We'd need some big shifts in physics to change this.
>An other brainlet take that death is necessary because people can't change their beliefs.
Go ahead and prove me wrong, mouth breather. It amuses me that you're so wrong and so entrenched in your diseased belief system you can't even comprehend what I said.
This. The brain is effectively immortal already yet people's minds degrade when they age.
>The brain is effectively immortal already yet people's minds degrade when they age.
What a moronic fricking statement. Is the mind not part of the brain? You think old people becoming more moronic as they age is completely disconnected from the aging of the brain?
>Keep going and having fun, right? Why not?
Because hedonistic people like you are the ones who should go extinct to begin with.
Frick off and die, ascetic moron
At least I'm not a parasite of my own species, moron.
based
>someone seeks more in life than just hedonism
>you screech autistically
you will not be saved, because you are not worth saving.
What else is there to do?
>Keep going and having fun, right? Why not?
1. It's not technologically viable in the foreseeable future, despite the technocult's utopian promises
2. You are disposable cattle to your rulers, and they have no interest in keeping you around forever
3. The most you'd get is a McLife(tm) yearly subscription that will be used as leverage to keep you in line
4. It's an obscenely narcissistic idea that you should stick around forever and pollute the future with your current year beliefs and worldview

MY BELIEFS CHANGE WITH NEW KNOWLEDGE however.

You will never have the pliable mind of a child.
sure I will, just build a machine that makes your mind pliable forever
You seem to be some kind of a moron. You don't want to have the mind of a child forever.
Many throughout history have had pliable minds, think DaVinci. There are fascinating people who continued learning and growing into their 80s. The mind never needs to shut down and cut off to possibility. Any non-moron knows this.
You are an utter imbecile and it's clear you don't even begin to comprehend what I actually said. I don't know if I care enough to explain it. DaVinci did not have the mind of a child.
Doubt it.
immortality is needed colonize everything
can't colonize moons and planets if people keep dying
make them immortal while keeping the ability to have children, spread across the galaxy
real virus hours
Don't bother, anon, IQfy is filled by people who are against this, and normalhomosexuals are no better.
What if we're already immortal and she's just a smug b***h?
There is a very good reason. One of the only things that makes existence bearable is the knowledge that every king, every butthole, no matter how depraved, dies and becomes nothing again in a few years on the outside, just like everybody else. Biological immortality is an abomination of an idea.
Better that the entire species go extinct than that a single organism escape into arbitrarily long perpetuity.
there will still be death anon. but there will be no natural aging. so console your stupid head.
poopieface.
(and they said I had not the mind of a child)
You just have the mental age of 6. That's not the same thing.
What show?
The Orville S3, E3 I believe.
OFC that fedoralord Seth Macfarlane is behind this.
Meant for:
>fun
lol very cute. That happens and soon your masters will put you in a cage and make your consciousness their eternal slave. There is little need for "fun", but much demand for a real Hell. Die while you still can, as your digits insinuate
Immortality massively increases the resource burden by preventing deaths and brings genetic stagnation which greatly increases risk to the gene line long term. Even if it was possible, immortality benefits the individual at a terrie and likely fatal cost to the species.
But that's hogwash however.
Immortality does not imply:
1) people stop having babies
2) a resource burden especially when tech advances well into TYPE II on The Kardashev scale
3) that people won't still die, some people like you will still want to, other people can extend as long as they want to. There will still be tragic accidents and crime causing death.
They don't have to stop having babies, the DNA of the children will converge because it's the same people procreating.
that's a rather easy problem to solve, innit mate?
I mean come on, man. as your glorious leader likes to say.
This is a glorious thread and as a glorious thread you have responsible to contact SENS donors and have sex with them. Do whatever it takes for antiaging research.
>for the first time, human-like biological immortality has been praised in a show.
What does that mean? What are you even talking about?
>there is no reason why a conscious species would not evolve to immortality
You don't understand evolution. Unless you're using "evolve" as a mere synonym of "change".
Most of our constituent genes are already immortal, as they've been copied more or less exactly since the beginning of mankind by the process of sexual reproduction. The genes have no incentive to give us bodily immortality.
