No
A human can spend an eternity alive and still not completely understand itself
Cameron Jenkins
it already has
every day science btfo philosophy and religion by doing what they had pronounced to be impossible
>l o l teleology and formal cause bruh
>*science proves these are superfluous*
>lmao high can't come from da lower xDD it's LOGIC(trademark)
>*science proves evolution*
>duuude like, slaves just gotta be slaves man, obey ur masterrs :^)
>*science invents technology rendering slavery obsolete*
>uhhhh, like, souls and body dualism dichotomy kek
>*science proves consciousness is a totally material process*
>m-muh i-immortality and after life...
>*science literally about to roll up its sleeves and prove them wrong again*

Easton Davis
If anything it will make it more pertinent
Benjamin Myers
Humans ain’t gonna be around on Earth for much longer lmao. You can thank “Science.”
Noah Johnson
These sorts of *ironic* posts are the fucking scourge of this board. It's neither clever nor funny, what's the point?
Jaxson Walker
The claim that science is all that is needed is not empirically verifiable, and thus, not scientific.
Jose Gonzalez
Maybe it will make philosophy more relevant than ever. Immortality means we'll all have an awful lot of time to examine life.

Literally Herbert West reanimator tier
Luke Sanchez
If you were serious, then the tone was childish. Also philosophy deals mostly with subjects which simply cannot be dealt with by science.
Luke Young
Both philosophy and science are slaves to the God of Capital
Angel Mitchell
BASED, and, if I may be so bold, quite redpilled indeed good sir
Sebastian Butler
I like your style
Josiah Richardson
this outlook is invalid, assuming an antiquated idea of scientific method, like thinking doctors are the same sort of sawbones types they were during the civil war and haven't become a vastly more sophisticated occupation since.
as technology continues to advance, the amount of the world that will be able to be brought under scientific scrutiny will also increase, and when you couple this with the more and more precise specialized areas of study, you will soon see that all of life will be explicable by scientific method and, as I pointed out, there is already a ream of subjects/fields of life that were previously thought unanswerable by science and belonging to unscientific fields

Russians did this 100 years ago. Accelerationism is a shit meme.

Sad bait. It's an easy concept to execute, too, which makes your overreach all the more glaring.
Easton Bailey
This.
Even with our normal human lifespans our memories fade and become obscured. Imagine living so long your own childhood and development as a person become completely unrecallable. As far as you can remember you've just always existed. The amount of philosophical reckoning required would make our mortal existence seem simple in comparison.
Even if you go the route of digital immortality, as you live longer and longer, the sheer amount of temporal episodic memories you accumulate and your digitally enabled perfect recall would utterly fuck with your relationship with time and causality. You would need a pretty sophisticated philosophical system to be able to cope with that.
Alexander Price
No, though it will probably curb religion. As Freud said religion will be around as long as people fear death.
Camden Butler
It makes me incredibly happy to see those good boys safe
Jayden Bennett
Ironic from a satanist
Luke Gonzalez
Freud was a tard tho
Isaiah Cook
You don't know shit.
You probably have never read post modernist philosophy even once but talk about scientific progress as if you knew anything about it at all
Benjamin White
Fucking pigs. They timed this for the Chinese year of the pig.

Silliness. Philosophy was finished in the 19th century

Charles Bennett
yes.
until I fucking kill you.
Samuel Adams
Why would anyone want to be immortal
Luke Thomas
Love of life.
Wyatt Barnes
Love of life comes from the inevitability of death
Xavier Cook
No, not really. It is about living.
And "immortality" is an odd word. If I had the potential to live forever I might take pause. After three hundred thousand years I might want to let it go.
Landon Campbell
Addendum
I admit that knowing your life is finite makes it feel more precious. It doesn’t make me embrace death anymore though.
Chase Diaz
No why woude it? And it won't be real imortality there still be an end somewhere.
