Source: Daily Beast (http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/12/04/the-year-we-decided-to-live-forever.html)Silicon Valley came up with a lot of things this year, like creating an on demand pot-to-front-door service, and devising a sparkly way of destroying enemies by shipping them glitter—but one thing it’s still working on is figuring out how humans can live forever. Research into surpassing life expectancy norms has become the pet project of tech billionaires, with entrepreneurs from Mark Zuckerberg (http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/12/01/mark-zuckerberg-s-charity-windfall.html) to Sergey Brin writing out million dollar checks to fund their quest.

The list of entrepreneurs jumping on the death defying bandwagon has grown rapidly over the past few years, creating a veritable who’s who of generous donors. (http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/04/14/can-medicine-outsmart-death.html) Notorious within the ranks are Peter Thiel, PayPal’s co-founder and developer of Breakout Labs, a funding body for radical research into early stage science geared towards tackling degenerative diseases; Oracle CEO Larry Ellison, who has donated some $430 million to anti-aging pursuits; and Paul Glenn, a venture capitalist who doles out grants to lab researchers at the likes of Harvard and MIT to investigate “the mechanisms of biological aging.”
“When I interviewed Glenn at his home, there was a book entitled Reversing Human Aging on the coffee table,” Adam Leith Gollner wrote in The Daily Beast (http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2013/08/20/the-immortality-financiers-the-billionaires-who-want-to-live-forever.html) two years ago. “I asked him how he felt about that idea—about making theBenjamin Button fairy tale real, in effect. ‘I’m of the anything-is-possible school,’ Glenn answered.”
The pursuit of stopping the clock on corporeal degeneration has become increasingly aggressive in those intervening years, with 2015 proving to be the most dogged yet. The 2045 Initiative—Dmitry Itskov’s life-extension organization seeking to transfer personalities onto non-biological items and, ultimately, immortality—projected that this year could be the first in which such a system was created.

we cannot stop science and knowledge, everybody would like to live longer and healthier but when it is defined by $$$ , it is eugenics. This is mainly why I am against the transhumanist agenda which requires massive depopulation (elimination of the useless eaters created by the system) to rise up.

this clearly supports the evidence that darwin doesnt apply humans and that competition is basically a crime against humanity. Competition causes either psychopathy or/and suicidal behaviors

I don't think that's true. Healthier yes, longer not necessarily.
I think many of the elite want to live longer, just so they can enjoy controlling more people and bringing misery to more people.
Once you've been there and done that many many times, (rich, or not) everything gets boring. Like I said, the only reason someone would want to live that long, is to bring misery to others...the elite never seem to tire of that.
What would anyone do with themselves if they had another 50 years to live, say to 150. How boring would it be to play golf for over 100 years...or watch football that long.
The only reason anyone else wants to live longer, is because they're afraid of dying.

Eternal life is a FREE gift God is willing to GIVE anyone but like many of you, snuff their nose at it and then turn around and try to achieve it by themselves.
FOOLS and BLIND...the whole BUNCH

John 10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

Well said. Also, most of these people are wasting their gift of life chasing greed, instead of finding peace with God. What makes them even more foolish, is thinking money can buy everything.

partially true... fear of dying is a major issue. But what you say would go against true medicine which is to prevent health failures. It is impossible to put a block on it. Just imagine, you have a earth attack and that even pace makers exist, you'd be denied to get one.

As long as medicine favors Life, it is fine with me. If longer life spans are dedicated to the Act of Creation, no evil can happen. but today it rather is the opposite. I'd would think that longer life spans would make death voluntary. a personal choice.

The fear of dying is also the result of having failed one's life purpose, missed the boat, and the system matrix is very good at making one feels this way.

Creativity is as infinite as the Universe, we still know so little. AI and transhumanism will be against Life as we already can see.

It must suck the have been wealthy all one's life, having everything brought to you, never having to strive/struggle for anything, never needing to set goals, no wins or losses.
Living like a king must get to be the most boring life of all. Being old for another 50 years would be a curse.

Don't get me wrong, I'd choose rich over poor any day of the week. Like the late Rodny Dangerfield said, " money doesn't buy happiness, but at least you can pick your own kind of misery". Being young and rich is the key.

I've been around a few wealthy people, Most are not happy when older. I knew and traveled with an older guy that was worth 100 million+...committed suicide over a failed relationship. I always wondered how someone that had it all, could do that.

You see everything black and white. The most common outcome of competition is not that the loser get killed by the winner. Longer life for someone with money doesn't mean that the others are killed. Would you ban health food because it is mainly people with more money that eats it?

competition means beating your competitors and into the ground if possible. Capture the market for yourself is the goal. The old money sends the boys off to competitive schools where they compete within and with other similar schools. The Ivy League. Everything is a competition. Everything is ranked. Ambition is rewarded. It continues on into adult life. Old boy networks keep it all going.

I've been looking at those super mega yachts. Imagining which one is right for me. It's a tough call. I can see the benefit of a 50 - 70m boat for working coastal areas, natural harbours, island archipelagos, most marinas. But I also think that something around 130 - 140m is the sweet spot. More ocean going, bigger seas. More space, more passengers - friends, more stuff. Too big for marinas though. Except that one just over from Paradise Island.

Neuro doesnt understand that the premise of competition inherently creates mega elites, if it werent the masonic zionists, they might well be from china or japan or even russia.

Many people out there revere competition and dream of being a world leader to have the power of life and death over populations. Competition and psychopathy goes hand by hand because competition implies that the sky is the limit, hence either the right to kill, enslave and impoverish in so many fashions, soft or not. For a top to stay in power, a scarcity pyramid must be created and maintained.

so like many neuro fights his own darwinian ideology. Man isnt an animal and we are learning this the harsh way.

absolutes always win over in due time, and that's the role of philosophy, to teach that. Anything that is not voluntary is against God. The NWO has twisted the game by making people want their enslavement. That doesnt mean that the premise is wrong. Same knowledge, 2 very different applications, one of them is satanic in essence.

longer life spans and money do not mix... if you are going to live, say 300 years, the rate of procreation will remain extremely low. Money cannot survive in that environment.



You're choosing your words carefully.
"true" medicine" what is that? I think "true" profit.
"As long as medicine favors Life, it is fine with me." You are speaking philosophically I'm sure.
"If longer life spans are dedicated to the Act of Creation, no evil can happen" IF, you are speaking philosophically again.

You got it the wrong way around, psychopathy is the underlying reason as to why conspiracy to rule the world exists at the behest of everyone else, it has nothing to do with competition, where you are trying to offer something better for less, which really is the reason why you can sit and post your nonsense from a computer on the Internet.

what I am stating is the premise of the NWO: competition and making people believe we are animals and must accept it as a fatality.

your train of thought needs culprits, mine implies full self responsibility

competition breeds psychopathy as the power game rules within every level of the pyramid, every compartment, and that is how/why they have remained in power for centuries long.

Remove the illusion of power game (which is clearly obvious at this stage), and your premise collapses, along with the NWO

as long as people do not see that it is their own power games that enable the NWO, the NWO is here to stay, or will rise up again. That is the meaning of the "all seeing eye" at the top of the pyramid" .

You don't breed psychopathy through competition. Psychopaths are born that way, these are the ones that torture cats and other animals as five year olds, it is genetical and it is much more common among the tribe, compared to goyims. It has nothing to do with healthy competition.

competition is always the result of a conspiracy - or lead to it.


Markets are just a gaming device/system.

inherent to the competition conspiracy

collusion is a pack mentality - animal behavior that doesnt work for humans. Collusion is exponential when failing to see that the premise is wrong to start with.

In the Universe, ALL trends are exponential. No escape. Competition just follows the same rule. Works fine for animals because they cannot fathom the big picture, prey by necessity. Being sentient comes with full self responsibility.

If any good with instincts/competition, is that competition should teach us is that if we let them go out of hand, they become weapons against ourselves. Awareness must take over, hence being human and end competition as a social model.
