If given the choice, would you want to live forever?

👍 Yes (22%) – “Life on this planet is so fascinating; I would relish the opportunity to witness all of the change (and similarity) over the years, and would also look forward to being able to progress, change, and grow forever!”

👎 No (56%) – “While I do think the average lifespan is a bit short to enjoy everything that life has to offer, I wouldn't want to live forever. Everything loses its luster over time, and even in the best of circumstances, life would likely become an exhausting nuisance.”

🤷‍♀️ Unsure/Other (22%) – “It would depend on my mental/physical state. I love the idea of it, but if I’m unable to do most things independently or have to be taken care of by others forever, I wouldn’t want to live forever.”
