There may be a cure come to pass for every ailment!

And let your imagination, part of the imagination of the Creator, run wild! Imagine that living places can be constructed instantaneously for fractions of pennies and material on the dollar and that transportation devices are made of atoms that are so small you can't see them, but they take you "there", wherever you want!

I am not just talking about robots. I am talking about modifying receptors and cells and DNA in living human beings!

Both death (other than violent/accidental) and aging, yes.
Futurists say we are approaching something called "technological singularity" and may reach it with 100 years . . . the point at which rate at which the doubling of human knowledge occurs becomes so short as to be indetectable, and problems are solved instantaneously.
My money's on nanotechnology to get the job done.

We may find more ways to prolong life but death will continue to be our foe. And if we did, can you imagine the ethical repurcussions with regards to procreation and population.

Scripture says that anything they can imagine is possible to them.
What do you think they are doing; but gaining by intelligence creative powers, which they deny issue from intelligence.

i don't know about stopping death; maybe prolong it. i think attempting to stop death would be incredibly expensive (keeping the body from wearing down) and really not "human". whether we want to accept it or not, death is a major influence on the human condition and to not die, imho, would make us not human.

I highly doubt that will ever happen, anyway there's already too many people on this earth...apartment buildings would literally have to be skyscrapers.

That would be horrible. I don't want to live forever, getting older and bleh and all that stuff. If no one ever dies, how will we come up with enough space for people to live? We're already overpopulated.

no.
For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.
