Hard choice. But if your were brought back from DNA strands then you prolly would not retain the memories or persona of the actual person. Now to live longer... Hey I am all for that. I would like to be able to live to be 125 but have my good health at that age as well.  |

Longevity runs in my family. My great grandmother lived to be 113 years old. She was spry and played freeze tag with my brother and I the day before she died. My grandfather is currently 98 years old, and in very good condition health-wise, we expect him to live almost as long as his mother. Because of my family history, I look forward to living a very long life as well. There are draw backs to it, though, my grandfather says all of his friends that were close to his age are all dead. It's got to be hard to watch all your friends die before you. However, resurrecting the dead? I agree with SmoknJoe, even if it were possible, I can't see the people would be the same. I don't think they would remember who they were, in essence a "different soul". -ToDieFor-  |

I think that with DNA it is possible to clone animals and humans, not only do I think that it is possible, but I also believe that it has been happening for many years now, of course not known to the public. I also believe that the consequences of tampering with nature in this sense will prove to be quite disasterous.  |

Yeah, I agree with you all of you. Death should not be tampered with- it's in the cycle of life. Living longer might be a good thing, but immortality would be a huge burden. Thanks for all your comments!  |

I Also Agree with everyone here.. I think Cloning or Extracting DNA In an Advanced Technological Manner., is Tampering with Nature & Interefering with God Himself., what He has Created... Besides., even if we wished to resurrect the loved one we've lost..., they would not be the same person as we knew them..... Great post, Epox....*Hugs*...T/C......  |
