I’ll wait for my resurrection body, thank you. it will be infinitely superior to any bionic body that man can devise. (And that body, too, will die.)

That’s the whole POINT of the Singularity: things will suddenly change out of all current recognition. Between Infotech, AI, and Nanotech. . . things are already changing fast.

Hold on, you ain’t seen NOTHING yet. . .

Just think of the consequences that a slower aging process and lower global mortality rates would do to a world population of 9 billion expected by 2050.

I’ll be 88 in 2045. Just my luck... I will turn 65 the year Social Security goes bankrupt, and die the year before mankind becomes immortal.

Just imagine if a tyrant like Mao, Stalin, or Saddam Hussein could buy the power to live forever...

I saw a man become one with a machine. It took the fire dept. over half an hour to undo it. The car and the man died when separated.

Probably never happen. It seems to me that western civilization has reached its peak and is now being dragged down the other slope by the political correct toleration of degeneracy promoted by radical Islam, multigenerational welfare dependency, and the various other fruits of liberalism. I do not think that scientific progress can continue when society as a whole becomes a cesspool.
