It shows that I have a smidgeon of an attribute that has eluded you, and, to my mind..is intrinsic to what we are. Compassion. No one who could suggest such a thing deserves to live for eternity at the expense of all other life.
@ Amine..who said that? Peng did, that's who. My cheif concern is precisely that there -would- be new people. That's why I can't see immortality as a desirable thing until we have some plan (that doesn't involve the fuhrer's suggestions) for dealing with the exponential burden. We've got alot on our plate as is.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
