Re: Yet Another \"Axiom\" Question
[ QUOTE ]
.
Suppose there was some scientific procedure that could be implemented that would make everyone on Earth live for five hundred years . There is only one downside.
500 years from now all humans will become sterile. Nor can they be cloned. Humanity ends about 100 years later. Should the procedure be done? If yes, how much smaller than 500 would you accept? If no, how much greater than 500 would be OK? Also if you answered no only because you think God would be angry, what would your answer be if he assured you he wouldn't be?
[/ QUOTE ] I think this makes it more interesting. If we were able to choose the same result with the terms being that we would stop aging for 500 years after the scientific procedure. A whole lot more people would be inclined to agree on this. IMO
