I like how all the replies to your post are appealing to tradition. “If you lived forever you'd starve people of resources and never evolve, that'd be bad!” If you lived forever, you wouldn't need to evolve, because you wouldn't be dying due to the environment. If you are still alive: you are well suited to be. Reproduction is just a form of genetic immortality if not individual immortality. All of this presupposes that some immortal people were born and just died out because being immortal wouldn't be rewarded by reproducing. And ignores the fact that animals that live for a very long time reproduce slower than animals that live for a short time.
