Life may be extended a little from good genes, healthy habits and medical breakthroughs but death is certain for all humans on earth. How many people even make it to a 100? Very few and I’m not desiring it Lord willing.
Gee, that's strange. You mean that you want your body to slowly descend into decrepitude, and your mind to slip?
What objection could you possibly have to people reaching the age of, say, thirty-five, and then remaining in that state of physical and mental fitness for, say, another four or five centuries (until - as statistics demand - they eventually suffer a catastrophic accident, like burning up on re-entry)?
Regards,
I personally think that humans will eventually find a way to cheat death. It may be biological, or it may be technological (making us into cyborgs). But it will eventually happen. When it does, the Elite will want to use the technology to cement their power forever. Or at least until they get tired of it (which may take hundreds of years).
