For those among us who tell us they're not getting older, just better..BULLSHIT..You have two options.  Get old or die...period. Optimally you'll get old and then die, but you can skip the getting old part by immediately killing yourself unless you're already old in which case you're fucked. You're just going to get older and die.

Well, I'll be 66.6 years old in a few months, and I'm definitely not better than I was at 19. But I was far better at 30 than I was at 20. And by 40 I was perfectly evil. According to some people, that is. Today I'm a much better historian than I was at 50.

So, better at what, and better than when?
We 'new atheists' have a reputation for being militant, but make no mistake  we didn't start this war. If you want to place blame put it on the the religious zealots who have been poisoning the minds of the  young for a long long time."

I'm definitely better at not getting a hardon at very inappropriate times. Unfortunately that's also true about appropriate times as well.  I guess I am getting better.

When I was a young man I honed my ... linguistic ... skills for just such an event.

A lot of people say stuff like that seriously, yet I've never seen why they're so sure about it.  Just seems like idle speculation and opinion presented as a matter of fact.

Maybe they were taught and caught to think in that way and cant save themselves from the cage

This is so very big breakthrough but they havent found the immortality, it's just about making longer the lifetime/ of course this is still a big improvement in science/

but it will take long time for this medicine for the use of people...

Ha! North Korea has had this medicine for years! If the decadent nations of the world want to deny long life to their citizens that's not surprising. The people of North Korea have determined that President Kim is the only human being wise enough to live that long.

I prefer to say that I may be getting older, but I'm not getting old.  I want to be the youngest-thinking centenarian this planet has ever seen, and my body is going to coöperate whether it wants to or not.

Pretty much.  I am willing to adult enough to keep myself housed and fed and entertained, and beyond that I am a free agent.

I retired from the Navy in 1989 specifically so I wouldn't have to adult. It works.

I have had multiple injections into my ankles and feet. I might consider telling you that painful feet are really the worst ailment. So to that, as I am a mere 60, I do not look forward to 20 or 30 more years of this crap. I wonder how long before they make excellent prothesis for feetsies?
