Immortality and Suicide

Since no human has ever had eternal life we have nothing to base our judgement on with regard to how boring, or how thrilling, it could be.

I think if life were truly full of adventure, discovery, good health, without fear, full of love, then perhaps it would not be boring to the point of suicide. Consider: have you ever been involved in something that was so engaging that time slipped by unnoticable? Have you ever asked: "Where did all the time go?" If life were like that every day, then "boring" would never happen, and life would continually have meaning, and it would be FUN.

we die. dieing is a problem - we don't want to die.
so why not prevent us from dying until we want to. then we can die.

If you want to die, then you die. You could even die at a natural age of 80 if you wanted to.

immortality just seems like such a no-brainer desision.
