If an old guy come to you and give you the possibility to have immortality, would you accept it?
Here is the conditions:
- You can never EVER be mortal again (not even if you go back in time);
- Whatever path the world takes you'll still be alive:
- If everybody died from a disease or a nuclear strike, you would still continue to live forever;
- If you commit a crime and are sentenced to be in prison for life its forever;
- If the planet is destroyed by an asteroid you would still be alive;
- If you go on a space mission and are left on outer space you would still be forever alive and conscious;
- you can't use your immortality in favor of every one, not even your sons;
Immortally would in this case meant:
- You'll still be able to feel every human emotion;
- You would still be able to feel pain, brake bones be wounded, get sick, except that he would always heal, not instantaneously, more like a few days later, always gradually becoming better.
- You can't get more healthier than the average healthy human.
- You would always look like an average 25/30 year old.
- You would have your current IQ (but an eternity to expand it)
- You would be limited in every aspect the humans are limited (whatever this means)
- Bullet shots or other extreme situations like car accidents, decapitations etc would cause you equal human reactions (pain etc..) except you would regenerate given a few time.
- Taking drugs would cause addiction in the same way it causes now;
etc, etc, I hope you get the point of this "immortality".
You are not special in any way except for the fact you won't die, and you are not perfect... just immortal.
Would you accept it?
