Default Re: Infinite Life and Government

I work in a doctors office that treats patients of all wakes. Depression is a large factor in over 30% of the people we see - and we're general practitioners.

I'm basing "most people don't know how to live" based off the fact that people are meant to enjoy life while they're alive, but fumble when it comes to finding actual purpose. And no, it's not quantifiable. It's purley speculative.

Instead of going in a circle here - because I do honestly believe that people are meant to die and will flounder if granted eternal life - I'll ask you, why, after 10,000 years, you would want to wake up again? Surely after a point you'd just want it all to stop.

And the god thing from your post came off as more facetious than a light hearted joke.
