no initially, not until about 2 seconds ago

Humans will become immortal as soon as someone manages to count to infinity.

why do you believe that?

Does counting backwards, from infinity also count?

while(1)
{

inf+=1;

}
//while(1){inf-=1;}

lulz

Guys, do you really want to be immortal? If so, why? Don't you think that after about 100 years you'll be tired of living? Death is normal state of life, and even after 100 years (more or less) you'll get tired, and will seek for death. There is only one way to be really immortal in this life, you must be great man, so even after your death people will say your name and will reminisce you as a great person (great author, great scientist etc). Immortality is senseless thing... I agree with Jibb here, better people think about avoiding diseases, murder and death by tragic accidents, but not aging (this is also normal state of life). At least this is my point here. And I'm sure there will never be possibility to be immortal, we were made to be born, to live our life and at the end of our days to die.

i want to be immortal because i have a god complex and 10,000 years from now i want to rule the universe... lolz. not really, but i do have this fear that by the time i die i wont be satisfied with how much i know about the universe. imagine if a caveman could experience todays technology...... and then communicate with us about the days from his early life. Life is ever changing and if you take our timeline and reel it back in 200 year segments, and use that growth to predict the amount of future changes, keeping in mind the massive leaps in science and the actual acceleration of the speed of our discovery...... I have a feeling if we dont all kill eachother or get destroyed by a natural disaster.. the future will always be a very different place.

There are a number of reasons, but I care not to argue it. That is what I believe.

EDIT: I also don't believe the future will be very different from now. I mean, what kind of really big advances have we made in the last two thousand years? Sure there have been advances in all sciences and generally speaking the quality of life has improved, but nothing of significance has really happened. We're not travelling through space. We still live on planet Earth wearing clothes made from animal skins and cotton plants. The three major differences between then and now are:

1. We can communicate much more easily; information is free.
2. We can kill eachother more easily.
3. We can heal eachother more easily.

I'm sure that in a hundred years, next to nothing but clothing style will change.

oh i didnt want to argue. i was just curious as to why you think that. i do happen to disagree, but i just wondered.

I see another problem: Our species wouldn't evolve anymore, but just stand still where we are.
