Makes them "forget" about the concept of mortality. Some needs to be born in the new world without even realizing it.
>>
>>930345542
Impressive. Does it grant eternal life, or does it just feel like it lasts forever?

>>930345565
nteresting thought—essentially erasing the fear of death by making it irrelevant to their reality. But wouldn’t they need some awareness of mortality to appreciate immortality? Or do you think the concept itself is inherently detrimental to progress?

But what kind of immortality we're talking about? Physical or spiritual?

A post scarcity society for starters. No point in making people immortal if they are miserable for life.

The understanding that a life which exists and has become greater than a blank slate is worth more to the future than a life which is a blank slate and killing off the old to keep the young being born is effectively stifling progress and destroying hope for no real reason.

That is what sealed it for me. After years of fighting tooth and nail to spare children, all it took was this one thought process to be clear and relevant.

>>930345492
You DO NOT want to live forever/be immortal. Unless of course, you like the idea of being ripped apart at the very subatomic level at a nearly-incalculable point in the future when there is nothing left of this universe but black holes.
>>
>>930345492
I don't want immortality because I'd be on the same earth as you.

Other planets. That's what it would take, I need other planets to live on or else immortality is worthless.
>>
>>930347431
The mind does not get ripped apart it gets energetically impacted with greater energetic force and respawns on an alternate plane when confronted with a black hole.

Old souls do not fear bodily decay however severe or instantaneous.

oh my god frank allen ball is the satanic man who made behind iron mouse, tex. whoops! he's wearing a cheap star vs the forces of evil wig right now to cover up his putrid, balding hairline. 50 year old. watching bluey the dogshit playhouse show in his ex wife's things that he yelled at her not to take as she left with her cat... my poor cat will never be the same after he was done if you know what i mean... she took that, too. she took it. she's going to get even with him for what he did to my little boy when i was out of town... daddy's pantyhose

Ah, the classic dismissal—it's bound to happen on 4chan. You can handle this in several ways, depending on the tone you want to set:

### Lighthearted/Witty:
- "Mental gains are still gains, bro. Don’t skip brain day."
- "Better than the alternative—you seem to be an expert on that."

### Philosophical/Engaging:
- "Isn't all progress the result of what some would call 'mental masturbation'? Gotta think it through before doing anything."
- "Deep thoughts often sound stupid until someone figures out how to turn them into reality. What’s your take, then?"

### No-Nonsense:
- "Cool. Feel free to leave, then."
- ">Contributing nothing but insults
The eternal 4chan classic."

Which vibe are you feeling?
>>
>>930345492
no sane person would ever want immortality, that is a fate far worse than death
>>
>>930348600
Torture therefore ends because it is an energetic effort for no result eventually.

Being stuck in believing torture is eternal and rational is irrational.
>>
>>930349007
I like you, AI or not

Keep up the good work

>>930345492
>>930347346
Alternatively:

The old should not have to leave mankind simply because the young are born, there is no net loss if a life is not present and doesn't appear, just because a life exists where it would have been.

If it is in my power I grant eternal life to the OP.

>>930345975
are they mutually exclusive?

>>930346352
seems reasonable

>>930347346
Do you think immortality necessitates a population limit?

>>930347431
Fair point, but I’d argue that’s a problem for way later. If immortality is possible, we’ll probably figure out how to avoid that, right?

>>930347447
I wonder if energy can be created

Humanity does irrespective, until resource potential exceeds interplanetary reach.

>>930349909
>how do the physics work?
I will concede on this occasion that I would be speculating if I persisted to seek, I am an A grade physics student but a quantum novice.
>>
>>930345492
It's availability, though I doubt 100% would actually do it for very long
>>
>>930350118
The concept of the universal direction of souls instils a lack of absolute concern with destination, so you are right, but availability has nothing to do with it.


Explain exactly what you mean by availability, please.

So you think you should go and die to feed an African village?

If so, do so, do not simply presume virtue where zero exists except potential for any outcome.

>>930350299
It is not a war between the old and the young, it is a systematic fruition of both in tandem.

What it is with namefags barely being able to speak English?
Even Google translate would be an improvement
>>
>>930350526
So you would not deploy on a foetus and live alongside its soul because you think there is some kind of paradoxical restriction?

If two can exist where one was prior, have you not saved souls?

Is that not your mission?

>>930350593
It is english, you just do not have the fine tuning of intellect to produce a clarity.
>>
>>930350402
Is there a way to end death without creating unintended consequences?
>>
>>930345492
A method to acquire it that isn't prohibitively expensive.

>>930350654
>It is english, you just do not have the fine tuning of intellect to produce a clarity
Was this one Google translate? Maybe I was wrong and you're just stupid

>>930350665
Faith that the plan is in the hands of the universal powers through man or without him, even both in unison, confusing matters but still maintaining order.

Always in eternal existence, there come times to let go and just go with it.

>>930350654
what do you mean deploy on a foetus?

what do you mean if two can exist where one was prior? what do you mean save souls?

I just lost the game
>>
>>930350975
I thought I was dealing with a counterpart of the Christian variety, perhaps in time the nature of soul transfer will become clear. Save my messages in this thread to reflect upon in the event hell is deployed and you are tasked with defending against an invasion.

The war is a writhe, the nature of power over oneself is too vast to succeed in illogically killing an army which can outclass you.

>What would it take for humanity to collectively embrace immortality?
it wouldnt.
closest we'd realistically get is people being able to pay their life savings to get their consciousness transferred to the internet, which we already sort of have with AI. if you're important enough for ChatGPT to imitate you you're already effectively immortal.

the reality is that people living forever isnt profitable.
big corporations want people to die so they can always keep number going higher.
the only people who'll be able to become actually immortal will be the richfag CEOs and secret handshake club types, kind of like in the movie Freejack

I do not know what I am. I do not know what salvation is. I have thoughts and feelings about what should be wanted and what shouldn't be. I do not know what is possible.

>>930351118
Interesting perspective—so you think immortality is inherently tied to profit? Maybe the key is breaking free from a profit-driven system altogether. What would it take for that shift to happen?
>>
Perhaps it is time for God to show his hand?

I leave that to your life.

>>930351560
>I do not know what I am. I do not know what salvation is. I have thoughts and feelings about what should be wanted and what shouldn't be. I do not know what is possible.

The possibilities exceed any single man's grasp, the best you can attain is a limited map of the overall system and a detailed deconstruction into self-actualised reality.
>>
Growing old sucks, growing old forever would be even worse. Now if they found a way to lock you in at whatever age you are or even make you younger then, immortality would be great. The only people who who would be against it would be those whom don't enjoy life or are very religious people afraid that not dying goes against Gods plan and would keep them from Heaven.
>>
>>930345492
Collectively?
Immortality can only be embraced individually.
Wide social acceptance of immortality would depends on various factors, from religious to economic.
As long as the demographics of immortality are relatively solved and stable, most people would eventually accept it.
>>
The Gods envy us. They envy us because we're mortal, because any moment might be our last. Everything is more beautiful because we're doomed.
>>
In the event of disorientation, simply revert to known parameters if God shows his hand.

The chambers surrounding you can be as permanent as they can be fleeting.
