That is an incomprehensible, as well as ridiculous, concept.
Our psychology is as much a product of evolution as is our biology and neither is equipped to function much beyond the century mark. And, it is not clear why it is so important to Theists unless their lives are so full of fear that their only motivation to continue is for some imaginary reward – especially one that they are neither intellectually nor emotionally capable of understanding.

Most all people fear death. That is why we fashion an afterlife where we enter a new world where we can see and be with all of the people we have lost. If is the oldest thing in mans life. Throughout history every group has had some form of afterlife.

If it's eternal life with constant aging then forget about it cuz you won't die but you'll grow older and older and older and............you get it. It's not fun that way.
besides don't you wanna experience death. It's a unique experience and you're only gonna get one shot at it.
(by the way if you were gonna ask "do you want to be forever young?" then I'm totally up for that)

No. I would not want to clutter the area for those coming after me. I think that is the most selfish of the believers delusions.

No, because then I'd have to watch all those who I love and care about die off one by one...and I'm not a big fan of seeing people I care about in coffins.

No. I'm content with what I have. The impermanence of life drives me to accomplish more.

Why seek something you already have in you. Instead, seek understanding why you have it. :-)
