I also believe in an immortal soul (hoping that the memories on my mortal life here will not expire after 40 days), but even if I did not, I would not want to live for an infinite time.

Well, I admit: The prospect that Lush keeps her wonderful body just the way it is now sounds very tempting... [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Well, it's nice to see I got somebody's attention...Besides the, uh, fact that immortality apparently helps one defy gravity and the sun, there is also the advantage of keen eyesight and hearing, and of being one with nature. Of course, Walt Whitman was a living testament to the fact that not all of us humans are separated from the natural world.
If I was blessed with the opportunity to occupy Middle Earth, I would want to be an elf (so much interesting stuff happens, and I wouldn't want to miss out on it because of old age and death). Living as I do in this world, my humanity suits me just fine.
