 I think that you should get some document where you specify whether you want to be brought back or not.

 Maybe they could only use it for people that died in accidents, rather than natural death...

... or they could use it to revive pets only :P

Just wait until 2252, when humans start living on the moon. :)

Seriously, I don't approve of this. Toying with immortality is dangerous, as it can lead to misery, overpopulation, and countless other problems. I hope the research fails, as it will do more harm than good in the end. Humans simply weren't meant to last forever, and it isn't meant to be that way. There are also religious reasons out there for disapproving of this; some would believe humans are stepping on the toes of God.

I think it is normal to fear something that we do not fully understand. I would say your reaction is quite biased, based on belief rather than logic.

For example, how does bringing a person back from the dead cause misery. I am not quite sure where the logic is in that statement.

Let's put it another way. If your baby has just died, and scientists are saying, "Yes we can bring your baby back a live," are you going to say "No, my baby is better dead" or "Yes, I want my baby to at least have a chance to live a life".

I agree, human design means that we eventually die, and I can see that this won't help old people with dysfunctional organs, or people with cancer etc. But it might help children and young adults who haven’t had the chance to live their life.

I am for the research, and can see more potential gains than loses. I don't feel that religion should be enforced onto others unwillingly, and so I hope it succeeds.

Have you considered that we already might be in hell?

 We've been cheating death for centuries with medicine and biotechnology. This is just the next step.

 Yeah, overpopulation would be a problem...

The Isaac Asimov dude said something about how in 7000 AD the Earth will be a ball of packed human flesh expanding outward at the speed of light, or at least something like that.

 all thay proves is a dead body can be 'raised' from the dead after a short while of dying which happens every day to people in hospitals, heat attacks etc.
Has any person (human) ever been brought back to life who has been cyrogenicly frozen?? ;)
