MANKIND'S OBSESSION WITH CHEATING DEATH

By Kelli Ritter

WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN AFRAID OF THE DARK AT THE END OF THE HALLWAY. FROM CRYONICS, MIND UPLOADS, AND AI GUIDED HEAD TRANSPLANTS, HUMAN BEINGS HAVE SPENT THOUSANDS OF YEARS TRYING TO OUTRUN THE ONE APPOINTMENT NO ONE CANCELS. WE FREEZE THE BODY. WE EDIT THE GENOME. WE DREAM OF COPYING THE SELF INTO A MACHINE. WE CALL IT PROGRESS. SOMETIMES IT IS. SOMETIMES IT IS SOMETHING ELSE: A REFUSAL TO ACCEPT THAT DEATH WAS NEVER ONLY A MEDICAL PROBLEM. IF DEATH CAN BE DELAYED, CAN IT EVER BE DEFEATED?
