ccowden 0 #5 March 3, 2006 Yes, I am going to die, and I know that it will be sometime in the next 100 years. That is narrowing it down good enough for me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RkyMtnHigh 0 #7 March 3, 2006 This post stems from a convo I had with my dad...he was recently diagnosed with a genetic disorder which produces excess amounts of iron into the blood (hemochromotosis)and he has to get a pint of blood drawn every week because with his condition he can't get rid of the iron and it causes toxic levels of iron to make direct deposits to vital organs leading to organ failure then death. My bro and I have to get tested for the mutated gene. My brother had his blood test already and has elevated liver enzymes which is a direct correlation to the condition...and I had a blood test back in July/August and it said something similar, but I need to go back for another check just to make sure. My brother and I are sorta weird on this one...we are nonchalent because we both have so much going on in our lives that this is the least of our worries..really, it is. Regardless, it's out of our control and we'll just deal with it as it comes. _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

waltappel 1 #16 March 3, 2006 The answer is very simple. Having a certain future robs you of hope. It takes away the wonder and mystery that make life exciting. I would choose not to know because I want my remaining time to be something to be explored. Walt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billvon 2,989 #19 March 3, 2006 If I _could_ know, it would mean that much of what we understand about physics and causality would be out the window. Would that be a good thing or a bad thing? It would certainly be interesting; would change the world as we know it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What if throwing yourself in front of the train because you thought you were gonna die anyway, was how you were gonna die? Maybe you woulda lived for 50 years if not for that train, see the problems knowing causes? RMH said it best already "I'll deal with it when it comes up" |>.<| Seriously, W.T.F. mate?

Realistically speaking, suprise. But then, if I were to know exactly when, then conceivably I could engage in a virtually limitless parade of death-defying activities which no one could imagine possible (except for myself who knows it won't kill me) up until just shortly before that appointed time. Basically, I could help or take advantage of society in a virtually limitless fashion - probably build a incredibly lucrative career on trying to (by all appearances) off myself but somehow miraculously pulling whatever stunt off - every time. Also walk into raging fires to save kittens, defuse bombs, become the greatest lion-tamer in the world, and of course, impress women. Best I don't know.
