Why haven't there been any real mad scientists yet? Where are my geniuses working from the fringes to bring down the old order of things?

You think Craig Venter isn't doing this making bacteria shit because he wants to kill everyone with a supervirus with his email encoded in its DNA?

Because he is.

I am fully prepared to purchase heavy weapons for kidnapping and killing people in order to obtain the cure for aging. Even if it means a 100 year prison sentence.
There are a fair few people that would feel similarly. Also, pic related.

have you ever seen the "it only a theory" episode(brit-tard tv show) with de grey?

the host asks the audience who wants to live forever. almost nobody

the host then asks who wants to die. exactly zero people

if there is any justice in the world, that will be the only intelligence test required to pass to live forever

A better question would be 'Who wants to live as they choose?'
Living forever isn't too flash for me either. Thinking about the heat death of the universe is more horrible than thinking of my own death. I don't want to see the last red dwarfs of the Virgo Supercluster Galaxy burn out.

that pic is total bullshit. what if the cure was eating only really expensive food all the time combined with a stay in a hospital/specialty clinic for a week or a month every few years? again, your pic is total retard propaganda

basically its just the shit de grey tells the pleibians so people don't stone him. ask him for real, what are the costs of the shit he does today to "prevent/cure alzheimers"(his code for anti-aging) and see how cheap that shit is.

Of course.
Right now I just want to see Mars, Venus and Luna terraformed. That'll most likely be finished by 3000AD. Watching the hypernova of VY Canis Majoris sometime in the next 100,000 years would also be awesome.

You know the doomsday device in Dr. Strangelove? It was based on this guy's idea for a weapon he thought could wipe out all life on Earth. He was also an avoid pacifist.
