What makes you think no one wants to die?
No one knows for sure if there's anything on the other side, but I definitely don't want to stick around this world forever. Immortality would be a curse.
- Bakkot 15y agoTrue, outlive-the-heat-death-of-the-universe immortality would be a curse. For people who are happy, living indefinitely would not.
- wavephorm 15y agoLong life != immortality. Obviously nobody really wants to be immortal and one day outlast the solar-system and eventually be left floating around in space for trillions of years.

- gwern 15y agoI'm afraid GEHIRN ended the Evangelion test pilot trials a few years ago; sorry.
- vacri 15y agoImmortality is not that much of a curse. When you get tired of life, just sail to the West and things will be peachy again!
