pedro27: For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Wrong!

Jesus isn't God's one and only son.

The bible you're using is corrupt!


God gave his "only begotten Son."

Chapter 1 and 2 of Job, talks about the "sons of God."

smiley963: When young it seems that you have forever ahead of you. Sometimes some accident happens and these young ones dies at a very early age.

When growing older, life gets more difficult, as you develop all sorts of elderly illnesses. Some people are so incapacitated, that they would prefer to be euthanised, which is illegal most everywhere.

We all know of people that lived to their 90's and older.

Imagine medicine is advanced to the stage where we don't have to worry about illnesses anymore, and can live forever, except under dire circumstances. Your body is automatically kept young, with the help of space-age medication.

Would you want it?
All i want to do is grow old with you...

Billy Idol can be funnier than snot...

Several people in my family have lived into their nineties so I guess it's a possibility for me. So far I have managed to avoid most of the elderly illnesses. I guess the big question would be "Are you happy with the life you are living now? Or would you be willing to make the changes necessary to be happier?" I also imagine that you would have to have a certain amount of money to be able to afford these medical advances. I don't think I would want to live to be old in my present circumstances but that could change if I won the lottery.

The medical advances that I'm referring to, will be available automatically to all people, according to what you are able to afford, where someone with a high income will pay the highest amount and the lesser, less amounts, where everyone will still get all the benefits. This will not be because you have to pay, as it might just as well be for free, but people psychologically react better to something is they feel they have paid for it and thus deserve it.

Thus you will also qualify, or rather everyone will.

Revelation 9:6
And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.

Kind of like Medicare for all? I think it would still depend on how happy I was with my life. I would not want another twenty years of unhappiness. It's kind of difficult for me to remain optimistic these days. Maybe after 2020 I might feel differently.

You know what:
I believe Revelation to be the Most accurate predictions. Nostradamus is a joke.

Yes, Medicine will keep them alive indefinitely!!!

But is you Are Happy, you will want to live.

What is happening in 2020?

I think they're commonly called the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse; but I can't find a link I'd recommend, besides The Bible...

Revelation 6:2, 4-5, 8 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.

And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him.

I know of the Centaur and the Balances. Obviously there is death. I don't know of the Red one...

No. I would not want to live forever. There are too many people on the planet as it is. Imagine the effects of overpopulation? Will there be laws forbidding children? I'm perfectly content with the cycle of life.
