Re: Billionaires aiming to be immortal being with their vast wealth
Won't work. Requirements for everlasting life are too complex. After all, science has barely begun to accept the idea that there is a soul and spirit. Even if the physical body has been kept alive forever, will the connection between it and the soul/spirit always remain, as well? We are far from understanding things like this, and they may not even be something we can understand.
Besides, when the connections are weakened, there are evil spirits that want to get in and take over both body and soul, right?

They might try to keep thier bodies immortal but it would be difficult to keep the brain and soul alive. Each time science try to make advancement that would make them equal with God, they keep on facing some unsurmountable obstacles that points them to the fact that there is a Creator.
One of the advantages of this quest for immortality is that it would advance the frontier of the scientific and health field because these billionaires would invest money to fund researches. And these discoveries would not only benefit them, but the common men on the streets would also benefit from it. I don't think anyone would achive the feat of unveiling the mystery of life and death.
Good point. However, the machinery of the universe works for both, the good and the bad.
The American white tail deer lives 10 years to 20 (20 in captivity sometimes). The point is that people can use wisdom and science to extend their lives on average.
Probably there are some plants in the jungles of South America that, if they were consumed, would extend life by many years. Grocery stores, and farmers' fields only have a limited variety of plants. And many of them are not used to their full capacity for extending life.
But what can one expect when the leading members of the medical - the people with the money - are always looking for ways to keep us sick so they can make money off us.
If some plants could keep me bouncy and fresh as a 26-y-o, I would probably want to keep on living.
