If you could drink an elixir that extended your life by another week, would you do it? What if it extended your life by a month, or a year? Ten years? A hundred?
In an article titled "Life is Good", John Martin Fischer explores the idea of immortality, and how an immortal life could retain meaning.
All of us pursue so-called "projects" in our lives - activities that make our time on this planet worth it. Activities that are best described as our raisons d'être. However, would life still be meaningful if all we ever did was the little things? If all we ever did was eat, sleep, maybe read, or listened to music? Kissed our parents on the forehead and told them we loved them? What then?
Is existential boredom curable? Is persistence in life the cure?
This was an interesting read, to say the least. It isn't often we come across arguments for immortality, and although this article didn't have us entirely convinced, it made us consider possibilities we hadn't even thought of previously.
Let us know what you think! How would you feel about living forever?
