We have the drive to survive. Just because not all of our drives make complete sense in our era, that one can't be broken by mere fancy philosophy and/or power of will. That one is there for the ride, pretty much forever. As long as one lives, one will wish to continue to live. If there appeared a drug tomorrow to grant immortality and freedom from all sickness and it was distributed freely to everyone, only mentally ill people wouldn't be willing to take it. Everyone else would, to a one.
Yes, I'm back to my old self where I make assertive statements like that. That doesn't mean I'm going to insult people, I'm merely expressing my opinion in a certain confident manner in order to generate as much discussion as possible.
And yet, in this very post, you insulted people who would refuse the immortality drug.
*Shaking my head and chuckling*
He said that he believed only mentally ill people would willingly refuse it.
Where's the insult?
"Mentally ill" is not an insult... you are aware of that right?
