Besides, if we were biologically immortal, people would spend all their time cowering inside, afraid of dying by accidental means.
Really? What if it made you immortal, like a God. You would have sentenced yourself to exist forever. That is not something to be taken lightly. Forever is a very very long time.
What people really want is not immortality, but the opportunity to choose the time of their own death.
