Cheating death: The latest research on aging and immortality from a Nobel Prize-winning scientist | CNN

Since time immemorial, humans have done their darnedest to try and cheat death. Today, as revolutionary advancements transform the stuff of science fiction into everyday reality, are we closer to extending our lifespan or even perhaps immortality?

Unfortunately people don’t realize you are going to live forever! And we determine where with what we do now. You must accept Jesus as your personal savior. And I know saying that will get me some laughing emojis, or some criticism about my faith, and belief, but I don’t care. If you read this then you’ve been warned you won’t stand before God and say, I didn’t know. He will bring this to your memory.

Romans 3:23
“…for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God…”

Romans 5:8
“But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”

Romans 6:23
“For the wages of sin is death, but the gracious gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Romans 8:1
“Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ…”

Romans 10:9
“…that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved…”


Humanity's quest for extending lifespan and perhaps achieving immortality has seen significant strides in contemporary times, propelled by advancements in biomedical research, genetics, regenerative medicine, and emerging technologies like CRISPR and AI. These efforts have deepened our understanding of aging mechanisms and offered promising avenues for prolonging healthspan and combating age-related diseases. While immortality remains a distant dream, these developments offer hope for extending human lifespan and enhancing the quality of life in old age. However, ethical considerations and societal implications underscore the importance of not just prolonging life but also ensuring its quality, emphasizing the need for a balanced approach that prioritizes both longevity and well-being.


Well I have a prediction: No. And the issue is 'the quality of life'. Ironically, what abortion is really about. If you want to be immortal, hospitals can accommodate you today. It just ain't gonna be fun. And the crux of the matter isn't the body. The body is simple. its the brain. The brain doesn't want to live that long. And it lacks the necessary 'programming', or 'operating system', to live that long without going kookoo. You'll be an insane gawd. And believe you me thats a bonafide recipe for self destruction. The only uncertainty is how many people you'll take with ya.
