All life will eventually die off, however they are working on reversing aging in humans. I think once they figure out how our DNA works, eventually they will fix all diseases, other problems and probably allow us to be immortal.

Also once they learn how biology stores data, they’ll eventually be able to upload our consciousness to the internet, or maybe even cyborgs…another way of becoming immortal.

Though I’m not sure people would want a cyborg body until it felt exactly the same as biological. I was hoping to at least see age reversal within our lifetimes, but I’ve seen that the field of medicine is pretty slow. Perhaps future generations will benefit, but sadly we won’t be here to see it.

If you believe in reincarnation, then maybe we’ll all come back as someone else. But I have a feeling this is it. Once we’re gone, there is no coming back. I don’t really believe in the idea of souls or a non-corporeal existence…since there is no evidence for it.

I think the next few centuries are going to be phenomenal, since we’ve finally reached a stage of mastery of science. Eventually we’ll spread out to other star systems, that’s when things will get really exciting.

Despite the problems in my life, that’s one thing I wish I could be around to see and experience.
