I am not sure which to pick.
If you would age but never die then definitely I would not want eternal life.
But seeing as I won't age...I still don't really know. I might because it will be fun to go crazy and suicide but not die and try to get people to kill you but not get killed.
Also MillenniumArmy, killing yourself is considered a crime so it is best to just make someone kill you so you won't be charged in hell

As I have in discussions like this before I say yes. Just being able to see the human race evolve both physically and socially is exciting enough. There's the knowledge also so many things to learn and an infinite time to do it in. Then there's the rest of the galaxy-universe, in 200-300 years there will be availible spaceships that can leave the solar system for the first time. It would be really great to be one of the first passengers on those ships. I could imagine it 20,000 years from now seeing fantastic new technologies and knowing things unconcievable at present time. simply an amazing thought.
Personally this would be far better IMO than spending eternity in heaven. I wouldnt want to be eternally happy all the time, its the lows and the hard times that make the good ones "good". To be happy all the time would be the dullest existence I can think of.

I see you quoted a story... nice.
But I'm not that kind of an emotional person, if my friends die I'll be sad for 1 day and get myself new friends the next day.
From the beggining everything is so sad because people are sorry for those who died, but everybody dies sometime so why are everybody so sad?
Being sad won't bring that person back.
Being sad won't help anybody.
Being sad will ruin your life.
Being emotional means being sad.
Imo, and you can tell me I'm a cold hearted basterd if that's what you think, you shouldn't care when someone dies.
If someone died - than he died, you have nothing to do about it.
So keep living your happy life and don't let it ruin everything.

No offense Aqo...
You're not cold hearted, but you just havn't experienced that anyone dying right in front of you. He's just an inch away from you, yet you can't save him. Sorrow is not the only thing that comes with death. Dispair comes along, so as is hatred. For an ounce of my life I actually HATED GOD because he wouldn't let me die instead of him. It's not just about being emotional. It's about how useless you are.

you die, you go to either hell or heaven. I'd say NO.
either place in Earth and hell is boring
oh yea... and what if you got sucked into a black hole and still live?
and btw... you can't THINK its dull or boring or anything negative emotion
or feel in heaven. you just won't get BORED or UNHAPPY, you will be happy
ALL the time, without boredness, just all the time, happy and no negative emo.
So you wouldn't even notice a thing

Yes. Defenitely yes. I mean, I really, really, really want to see StarCraft 2. And its not going to come out in MY lifetime...
More seriously though, yes I would like immortality. It would be fun to see what happens to the human race in the future. It might also be interesting because then you could have enough time to solve almost any problem, no matter how long it would take. Being immortal, you'd have almost infinite knowledge, and I could use that knowledge to help the human race... or conquer it for my own amusement.
After all, if I couldn't be killed, I could conquer the world with a butter knife.

I don't know... If I had immortal life, government research and jealousy would seem like minor inconvienences to me. Governments last for only what, 300-400 years? Compared to your life span (infinite) it's just a minor annoyance. Jealousy would seem even more minor. Once you escape/government falls, just keep a low profile, get plastic surgery, whatever.

But 300 or 400 years is still a long time, even though you will have a lot longer afterward. You might become mentally insane, depending on what effected you. If you could be hurt psychologically or drugs affected you, or you could feel pain, then it would really really suck.
