Aubrey David Nicholas Jasper de Grey, Ph.D., (born 20 April 1963 in London, England) is a controversial biomedical gerontologist who lives in the city of Cambridge, UK. He is working to expedite the development of a cure for human aging, a medical goal he refers to as engineered negligible senescence. To this end, he has identified what he concludes are the seven areas of the aging process that need to be addressed medically before this can be done. He has been interviewed in recent years in many news sources, including CBS 60 Minutes, BBC, the New York Times, Fortune Magazine, and Popular Science. His main activities at present are as chairman and chief science officer of the Methuselah Foundation and editor-in-chief of the academic journal Rejuvenation Research.
Aubrey de Grey was educated at Sussex House School, Harrow School and Trinity Hall, Cambridge. Prior to his work in cellular and molecular biology, he studied computer science. In 1985 he received a B.A. in Computer Science from the University of Cambridge and joined Sinclair Research Ltd as an AI/software engineer; in 1986 he co-founded Man-Made Minions Ltd to pursue the development of an automated formal program verifier. Although de Grey has never held a teaching position at Cambridge, until 2006 he was in charge of software development at the Genetics Department for the FlyBase genetic database.

I don't believe in physical immortality. Immortality means living forever. Physical immortality means that your body will live forever.

I've had 1 particular experience where I know I should be dead(it occured when I was 2 years of age), but I'm not. I don't think I'm immortal though. I've had very strange things happen to me since.
My father believes what you believe, but with slight difference. He thinks that reinacarnation stops after we have become perfect. Once we have become perfect, we stop dying(meaning we do not reincarnate - we go into the spirit world). I do not know if I believe this because I think very thoroughly...too thoroughly; meaning, he could be very right...or very wrong. No one knows.

Thinking about it, do you actually mean that physical immortality is simply reincarnation...but with memory of what has happened before? Or do you mean...hit-by-a-truck-at-120mph-and-not-one-severe-scratch?

Prove it.
Give me one little bit of evidence that can substantiate your very strong declaration.
Links?
Photos of the "immortal" person years apart.
Anything??
Without any proof this thread will stink of BS.
After forty years of scientific study with some of the greatest scientific minds, as well as a lifetime of meditative, spiritual, and philosophic study, the Dalai Lama presents a brilliant analysis of why all avenues of inquiry-- scientific as well as spiritual--must be pursued in order to arrive at a complete picture of the truth.

We are all immortal you are correct on some level or another. Some people don't believe in a soul, but regardless of their forgetfulness they still have one.

We are ONE with Spirit. We are all energy

vibrating at different levels, into threshold levels our eyes can pick up. The reality is we are mainly empty space on a quantum level, but go down even farther to the planck scale (This is quantum physics, just an easier way to understand for some) we are all connected. This is the String Theory idea that everything stems from one point in the cosmos.
My girlfriend gave me the book The Universe in a Single Atom by the Dalai Lama, but have not started it yet. The above book's excerpt:

You don't need to study Gnosis to have that lol
Originally posted by biggie smalls
The path of Gnosis will probably grant you with immortality, although you may have to leave this body first (who wants to leave behind a massive body when you can fly around in a spark? aka MerKaBah light body?).

I don't pretend to have all the answers fellas, but you can research immortality and will find similar responses. Remember we are all immortal, our souls have existed since before Time. We are masters of our worlds, don't forget that.

There are some good Immortals doing good things, but not all of them are good, and the ones that are not tend to have more sway amongst these people, (they expliot trust, and are highly maniplative)

The fact is some of you reading this could reach Physical Immortality easly in just a decade or so, while some of you couldn't (it heavly dictated by Karma, you have to get rid of all you old negative Karma first (and that could be many life times worth) and some of you may not be able to do that in just one life time, But many of you can.....
Basicly the more good you are the easier this can be,
