Well yes, I guess that surgical, medical and genetic procedures will continue to develop.

Though living longer is no substitute for not ageing.

Stopping the ageing process is the real goal.

That was 86 or so years ago, when the global population was approximately 2.3 billion.

Now the global population is approximately 8.2 billion.

The Aristocracy supposedly have blue blood.

There is no proof for, therefore there is no need for proof against.

Otherwise, like I stated about my granny, I can make up any nonsense  and say that you cannot disprove it.

To quote Harry Hill:

Holocaust or Genocide which is best?

Only one way to find out:

I doubt that any of them will live forever.

In the UK I generally abstain with the green button.

Though relative to your thought experiment, only a fool would not press the red button.

Who needs fools?

Yes, so clever that GOD chiselled them on to rocks up a mountain so that Moses could lug them back into downtown promised land.

You'd have thought that a letter through Moses's letter box would have been far easier.

Or even just a general visit and a speech from the Big Guy.

But no...As ever, up a mountain in secret.

And quite frankly, if you belief the tale of the ten commandments, then you will also believe  that my granny is a Pink Cake Monster from  Planet Bakeroo.

Three for the price of one is a seemingly not to be missed offer...But always check the use by date.

Yes.

It's just the way a thread unravels.

Yes, in other words a contradictory and therefore stupid idea.

Yes, Godfrey is a giving person.

Wasn't sure what the Girraficus meant.

But yes, in the US, preliminary elections are referred to as primaries.

Yes it's better known as tyranny.

Trump grins but is he ever happy?

I'm no good with Shakespeare.

So, which came first, the turkey or the egg?

No indeed...Just emphasises human greed and stupidity.

Yes  the premelaries.

So, do the premelaries come before or after the preliminaries?

Nothing worse than,

An Orange that's pippy.

Nothing better than,

Girrraficus's  yippee!!!

Trouble is, as we strive to make the place "greener" and more techno we keep creating devices that demand electricity.

For example, 8.3 billion personal communication devices do not run on magic dust.

And neither do 60 million EV's.

Not to mention 80 million air fryers...Nor 4 billion electric toothbrushes.

Though toothbrushes do strive to make things whiter rather than greener.

Okay, and I will name it Rod.

Yes, I wouldn't want to overtax a good catholic Canadian women's sensibilities.

Though Shakespeare is always in dispute.

Yes, such is a system where on the whole, people know there place.

Yes, a bit like a happy meal.

Perhaps a stroke or some other degenerative disorder.

Poetry in motion

Rhymes with lotion

And devotion

Potion

Lotion

Commotion

Girraficus

Cous cous 

On the bus

What a fuss.

Yes, what one expects democratically speaking.

Well Anti Trump is currently the big vote winner  when you need to sway the floating voter.

And Trumpian policy is hopefully self defeating

We will have to wait and see what happens at the next election to decide if democracy is alive and well in the US.

We will have to wait and see if there is a next election.

Yes.

Perhaps the  best way forwards.

Though if AI is a realist it perhaps will decide that it doesn't know.

So, when you say "The British" are you referring to all 75 million of us.

Yes, a guess as stated.

So do you regularly garnish with quinoa.

Or is it keen wah.

I enjoy chickpeas and cous cous.

Keen wah yah is what Flavia audibly relays from Waitrose via her smartphone to Phoebe who is looking erudite and alluring in the gallery.

Meanwhile Piers is with Wills shooting grouse on the moors at the invite of the Duke...Where it is doubtful that keen wah will be on the evening menu.

A more hearty fare will be necessary after an arduous day of being ferried from shooting peg to shooting peg in the estates  fleet of ATV's.

It's a bit like a univerucca.

Not to be confused with a Eunuch horn, which is either a castrated saxophonist or a contradiction in terms.

Yep, Americans are a mixed bunch of isolationists and the more open minded.

In between are the thoughtful but easily led.

Wherein voting and media sensationalism are something of a baffling mix of dissociative contradictions.

No, it's not a chicken and egg thing.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm.

I doubt they will directly enter the conflict. There's no overriding ideological or commercial need to do so...And China is led with pragmatism rather than gobshite buffoonery.

No, more sort of  insularity based self righteousness ,with hints of home grown racism and religious fundamentalism

Epstein files is  just human hoo hah, a global phenomena.

Well the motivation actually only requires thought and finger movements same as any communicative digital interface.

A preceding 10 mile jog, shower and massage is not necessarily necessary.

Yes, everything is essentially the same.

Coffee is always essentially the same despite what might be added to it.

Though there is now a chatroom where chat is infrequent, though what essentially is a chatroom other than another alternating digital interface, AKA a forum.

And then there is discord which is not DebateCraft as such...But something else to log into and interface digitally.

Saves me flying to North America every morning.

So no Mharman, it isn't better , it's just slightly different.

And Mafia is for those with not much else to do other than play with themselves in their bedrooms...Only jibing...Youthful exuberance is a force of nature.

Yes, I must agree.

Currently more of a pseudo-christian and Earth resources crusade.

All flags, valour and oil tankers.

Yes, tribute...From the Latin as ever.

One doesn't doubt it.

Yes, a singular foot issue.

Well I'm guessing that quinoa is not so popular or so widely used, so reactions to it would be mixed.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

I'm British by birth and was programmed as such.

I suppose that it's fair to say that such programming inevitably took on board Britishness of the 1960's and 70's.

Things have changed.

I have no say.

The problem is people and perhaps the necessity of people and the necessity of material progress.

Perhaps a real AI will eventually take control of Earth systems management.

Or perhaps life on Earth has no greater Universal significance.

Or perhaps other systems will succeed and some systems will not.

Or perhaps there's a GOD that enjoys prayers and hymns.

Or perhaps..................................................

Yes, I've been here since DebateArt's inception, 8 years ago...And with DebateCraft  ever since DebateArt's rebranding...I was with DDO before that. and also with various other sites.

Not sure about the reasons behind the rebrand, but I guess it was necessary to do so.

The two are still very similar in general format, though DebateCraft has the ability be progressive, whereas  DebateArt is somewhat stuck in it's own time zone.

Nonetheless DebateArt remains efficient.

And yes, a good place to seek refuge from overzealous moderators.
