people enjoy living.
i wouldn't enjoy being immortal as a human. in 3 billion years the leading species on the planet can be completely different. or worse, humans could evolve into more intelligent beings, making me look like a proto-caveman.
it would be cool to be immortal if you could roam space freely. but forever is a damn long time.

Maybe the part about your body rotting in the ground....or on somebodies fireplace. Not so much i want to live forever, but i definitely don't want to die young. But immortal, no....everythings got to end sometimes, we just have a hard time comprehending just being dead, but ill be glad to be dead once my life is about 20 prescriptions a day, and have a pacemaker and diabetes, oxygen tank, and a caregiver to wipe my butt....if i even live till then...and im not disrespecting old people whos lives are like that, but in my job, i see alot of them, and they surely arent very happy.

what would be the attraction in watching your loved ones die as you live forever.
Sounds like hell.

It's in our biology and psychology to survive. Not to mention that fact that no one can have it makes it more alluring (in general).
And heck no!

I dunno. Worshiping a Holy God who is so... everything.... could that be it?
Yeah. That's it. Of course.
