Clayton Posted September 18 Author Share Posted September 18 It is all about your point of view. Time fixes all problem and causes more. However since we'll always exist in some form or another, it doesn't really matter. We are going to be around forever. It doesn't matter if you like it or not. Physical immortality would have its perks and its downsides, especially depending on what kind you get. Eternal youth. Invulnerability. Regeneration. Undeath. Body snatching. Some will do anything to live forever. Others pray for death that never comes. 2 hours ago, Moxie said: Other than that, do you reckon there's any other positives to it?

No. Its only for those who are miserable and lacks what's essential. And because they don't have they seek prolonged life unconsciously longing for it.

The afterlife is typically seen as freedom from physical suffering and the everyday needs of our current life...I suppose that would look different for everyone On 9/19/2026 at 7:34 PM, animechat said: There are possible positive aspects to it.

To have the time to learn and see... everything. Including things you never imagined. To create and destroy. To change. To see the new. In the last few years alone we've found that the undersea world, through the right lens, ids a neon nightclub. We developed AI. They just proved auras are real. New species were discovered. A weird orange gremlin was elected president. To quote MIB, "Imagine what you'll know... tomorrow." Meanwhile in Hook they were all, "Death is the only great adventure."

Do you think the average human would be as appreciative of time and moments if the idea of it coming to an end never was a thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
