Being able to live forever would be really cool.

It's been a hotly debated thing for centuries, over most of the human lifespan. Certain scientists, futurists, and philosophers kind of theorize about how that would look in terms of the human body, and some posited that it could be achievable in the first few decades of the 21st century. Look how that turned out...

Yep, just like most future predictions honestly.

Immortality is kind of hard to define, really. Some define it as an absence of aging, so a "biological immortality," but not necessarily being invulnerable to death by disease/physical trauma. But then there are theories that in the future, with technology, we could "upload our minds," so that could be solved, too. It's interesting how many possibilities of "immortality" there are.

Goodness, you must know a lot on the topic of immortality then.

I think it's hard to be an expert on it. I just find it interesting, and read the different theories. Like, for instance, some people seem that it will be inevitable because in many religious contexts, it's often stated to be one of the promises of God and other deities, something rewarded to human beings who show goodness, or who make sure to follow divine law and what not.

I feel you, it's quite an advanced concept to think about.
