Joe, that is why i said the Bible speaks of a paradise soon to come. True, perfect joy is unattainable in this system of things. But in God's new arrangement of things, it will be the only way.
No, you dont have to die to see these perfect conditions come to fruition. But, if you do die before these things take place, John 5:28,29 carries a resurrection hope

What a wonderful hope we have, given to us by a Creator who loves and cares for us and all his creative works.
Living forever on a cleansed earth will have so many benefits which include:
No pollution, no terrorism or crime of any kind, no sickness, no death, no hunger, no homlessness, no racism, no fear of animals, no human governments to suppress or control us, no politics, no pagan holidays, no hatred of any kind, peace and security worldwide and an eternity to try to learn about all of Jehovah God's creation, which his Word says we will never be able to do, even if we live forever. We will never be bored, for there will be plenty of work to do and things we can study and enjoy.
Soon, all these things will become a reality for our earthly home and those who inherit it will obtain "joy and gladness"
"Sorrow and sighing" will be gone forever.
"Then the redeemed ones of Jehovah themselves will return and must come to Zion with a joyful outcry, and rejoicing to time indefinite will be upon their head. To exultation and rejoicing they will attain. Grief and sighing will certainly flee away" (Isaiah 51:11)

Who would want to live forever? Your idea of paradise sounds boring. Joy has no meaning without suffering. Everything in a three dimensional reality requires a polar opposite to exist. We survive in the balance of these extremes.
Joy in it's perfect state does not exist on this earth, that is for later. I have no idea how you could possibly infer that I enjoy violence crime or any type of suffering. How can you have a problem with death, won't that be the biggest step toward this paradise that you speak of? I am in no hurry to die but I must accept that it is going to happen.

If things were as you understand them, the planet would get awfully crowded, especially if people keep having children and no one dies. There will be serious consequences. Personally, I'd like to get rid of my body. I find it very limiting. In fact, since we're fantasizing here about what we want, I want to live somewhere else. You can have the earth. There are some cool pics at the NASA website, and I want to visit some of those. Since there would be no death, it won't matter whether its a million degrees C or trillions of lightyears away. I want to visit some of those places, zoom through the vacuum of space. Sit on an asteroid, ride a comet, explore a black hole. That's just for starters. I got big plans to visit God's entire creation and an eternity to do it. I can't wait.

cannot wait for that day, to live forever. revelation 21 verse 3 and 4. people don't understand that Jehovah God has not changed his mind. we will get what Adam and Eve lost. we will get to see our love ones again when Jesus wakes our love ones from death here on earth. didn't Jesus resurrected his friend Lazarus from death. if Lazarus was in heaven, what kind of friend would Jesus be. Lazarus would of said he was in heaven, but he did not. no more sickness, no more doctors, no more dying. thanks to Jehovah God and Jesus Christ

Right now I wish very so much to be competent to are living so long as viable, hundreds of years. Although I believe it's viable to are living hundreds of years, I do not believe that it's viable to are living without end. But if I do reach dwelling hundreds of years, with the intention to supply me tons of time to look whether it is viable to are living longer, possibly without end (as not likely as that turns out). I am hopeful that rejuvenation science might be to be had inside my lifestyles, in order that I is not going to age. As a backup, in case rejuvenation science isn't to be had in my lifetime, I have made preparations to be cryonically preserved. That method, I may also be preserved till scientific technology now not best achieves rejuvenation and treatments for all illnesses, however the capacity to fix cryopreservation harm. (Hopefully, I could be vitrified, and there could be no freezing harm). If all illnesses had been cured (adding getting older) and battle was once removed, then the reasons of demise could be twist of fate, suicide or homicide. In the United States in 2006 injuries had been dependable for five.zero% of deaths, suicide for a million.four% and murder for zero.eight%. Assuming that you simply had been discovered to are living without end, suicide might be dominated-out as a reason of demise. I have heard it stated that if best injuries and murder had been reasons of demise, that a man or woman maybe anticipated to are living over 1000 years. (Dividing eighty years through zero.06 offers a million,333 years, however that will not be a mathematically legitimate operation.) However, in case you best had homicide and suicide to fear approximately as reasons of demise, and had been looking to are living so long as viable, then you definitely could turn out to be more and more security aware. If you might curb your possibilities of demise because of twist of fate or homicide greatly each and every yr you remained alive, then you definitely might out-race the records and restrict demise because of the ones reasons. The Sun is attending to be more and more scorching, and through one thousand million years from now it's anticipated that the Earth might be too scorching for liquid water to exist. That will have to supply tons of time to transport to Mars, and outer asteroids, nevertheless, as good as constructing colonies that with no trouble exist in house or revolve round more and more far away planets. Eventually, different stars will must be discovered. The stellar segment of our galaxy will start winding down in approximately ten trillion years. In the interim, one need to restrict risks like being hit through asteroids, meteors or comets, supernova, black holes, and mostly tons of alternative matters we can not assume. It turns out inevitable that some thing goes to kill you that you simply can not expect or manage. Nonetheless, the longer that I could be competent to are living, the extra time that could supply me to clear up the disorders related to looking to are living longer. Like you, I might continue to exist the lack of every body that I understand -- even all of the leisure of humanity, however I could generally decide on to not must move it by myself.
