We're already vastly over-populated. There is a population limit, if we hit it......you're looking at mass starvation. It's a finite planet. Limited resources.
Longer lifespans will slam us straight into that population limit.
David Attenborough warned that either we control our numbers or nature will do it for us. The first option is far kinder and gentler than the later option.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
