Oct 22 2012: i think it's part of the god dilemma, to quote Achillies "the god's envy us because we are mortal everything is beautiful because we may die at any moment" do you really want to live forever for never? i think thats why people hesitate, while scientists look for longer life cuz they are scared of death other accept and celebrate their mortality... and btw this has nothing to do with religion i am a tea pot atheist and i'm curios of the afterlife like many people :)
