Live forever. Cost? One life per year.
I've got an interesting question (at least, to me) to pose for you.
Here's the situation:
You can live forever. The catch is: you must murder one person per year you intend to stay alive.
In example: At fifty years of age, you take the deal. Your pysical age is frozen at 50. For every year you get, you take one human life.
Would you do it?
I'm reading Tad Williams' "Otherland" books. While they don't exactly have this deal as part of them, the storyline got me thinking.
Personally, I think I'd do it, until I got tired of living.
There are just so many people that need killing, I don't see the problem.
Child molesters, murderers, rapists, abusers, people who don't use blinkers, the list goes on and on.
Obviously, my answer says a lot about me. What about you?
