Even if it can't be reversed because it's a limitation of the cells, you can just replace them with new cells. I mean literally new cells, not divided cells from existing ones. Not all at once mind you (so it's not risky), just one at a time over a longer period. I mean we can inject DNA, maybe in future we can even construct cells directly with nanobots. The difference between nanobots and cells is that nanobots are smart/intelligent -- because they can be governed (via EM waves) by a central computer with lots of processing power. Cells are "individualistic" that's why they're "dumb".

Of course, this is all speculation, I'm not saying that we'll necessarily be immortal with 100% guarantees, however, "logically" and "mathematically" what he said makes zero sense and he hasn't provided a single logical/mathematical argument of it.


On the subject of evolution, it has no brain or mind of its own, at least in the normal view of it. It only "cares" about extending its genes or DNA or whatever it is. In a sense, this is immortality of the genes. It's like immortality of an operating system, but not the user data or other software. (that is the goal of reproduction, we know it fails at this as well due to mutations)

If it can do that by passing down memories (data), then you can be sure it would've chosen that path long ago, via natural selection, since it's a much more superior process, so naturally, it would've been superior at "survival". But it can't, apparently, due to biological limitations or whatever.

Scientists have successfully transplanted a bioengineered lung into a pig

hopefully more efforts into such idea and we could solve our humanity suffering as soon as possible,

we should be able to create the whole body parts, artificial blood, and so on, hopefully we all could witness these in our life time.

And then they start producing people by bioengineering instead of our preferable way. God should have patented people creation.

To be honest, I don't see the problem. At least there won't be any genetic defects that nobody desires anymore. (I'm talking about terminal genetic diseases and the like, no child wants to have them, so it's more about the child's suffering)

I think the patent would have expired by now, so we're all good.

Just look at modern software. To err is human, to create buggy stuff is especially human. As soon as this field becomes highly paid a lot of non-specialists would come there to ruin it. And even smart guys tend to make mistakes.


Who knows, maybe if God chose a longer period of time people might also prefer longer terms.
