Yes, I would BUT if I had the chioce of dying whenever I chose to becuase what if the earth dried up and the human race started to die. Then it would be miserable to live. But yeah, I'd like to live until I felt that I have lived enough

If it would be with just these memories, and no more new ones, then I might consider it. However, if I were to retain ONLY the memories which I currently posses for the rest of time, then what would happen when all my friends died, and I was alone in the world? First, I would be treated as an Alzheimer's patient- and maybe that's what Alzheimers is, sorta. My Husband and Children would visit me every so often- when I could remember who they are because their visage would have changed. Eventually they would admit me, and in the beginning, they would come often, but as time wore on it would be less and less often, and then not at all. It would viably become a very sad existence, ending with my demise, probably by my own hands out of sheer misery at that point.

Are you kidding? This earthly body is a TENT compared to the one God has for the ones who follow Him!
2 Corinthians 5:4
For while we are in this tent, we groan and are burdened, because we do not wish to be unclothed but to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.
2 Corinthians 5:1-5 (The Message)
For instance, we know that when these bodies of ours are taken down like tents and folded away, they will be replaced by resurrection bodies in heaven—God-made, not handmade—and we'll never have to relocate our "tents" again. Sometimes we can hardly wait to move—and so we cry out in frustration. Compared to what's coming, living conditions around here seem like a stopover in an unfurnished shack, and we're tired of it! We've been given a glimpse of the real thing, our true home, our resurrection bodies! The Spirit of God whets our appetite by giving us a taste of what's ahead. He puts a little of heaven in our hearts so that we'll never settle for less.
How true! This body is temporary, and not made to be able to take in the wonders of Heaven! If one was going to build something they would want to have the proper tools. How much more so that Christians would want to have a body that could allow them to worship in Go's holy and perfect presence! Hope this helps, God bless!

To live forever and never grow old is the ultimate curse. Never changing though the world around you falls apart and is rebuilt time and time again. You would learn to never become close to people for fear that they too would grow old and die as everyone else has. You'd continue existing long after all is gone, just floating through infinite nothingness with only the bitter sweet memories of all those who have loved and are now gone.

I may prefer not to ....eventhough i have no much good memories but if i have the feeling of immortality in me then i may be wasting my time more than before.Mortality is the truth ....event the great saints of ages have preferred to move out of this world by considering as a supreme sacrifice for the betterment of the world.
Live your life the time in which you are provided and not spend time in looking out to extend your expiration date!

To live forever would mean everyone you love,will love will die before your eyes and you will constantly be remembering those loved ones . Pretty soon you would get to the point where you wouldn't want to get to know anyone because you would lose them You would see babies born,grow up,die. No I would not want to live forever in any body

Yeah, I'm still in pretty good shape and have a lot of my hair and teeth left. I'm assuming I get to keep my body exactly the way it is, although it would be nice if it were 10 years younger.

I believe that we will all live forever, after the resurrection. However, our bodies then will not be like the ones we have now. They will be immortal.

I would because I have good memories, and the bad ones would help me remember and learn from experiences
