From the Biblical perspective, man creating his own immortality is impossible. So the premise of your question can't happen.

The dime-a-dozen "gods" a.k.a. unrepentant sinners? No doubt they welcome the idea. Still, I'll go with the true God who says it's impossible.

Really? Impossible? Absolutely can't happen? From the Biblical perspective a person can't live past 120 years, but it's been done.

Now I know you're going to come up with all kinds of excuses like "no age past 120 was documented correctly", "people used a different calendar back then", "the Bible says 'no man', and you linked a woman", "the word 'year' could also mean 200 days in Hebrew/Greek", "the Bible meant ~120 years", etc...

So let me ask you this: What will it take for you to admit the Bible was wrong? 130 years old? 150 years old? You tell me.

Human immortality would put a damper on my own very personal beliefs. Mainly because it would make being born as a human seem like a dangerous trap for our soul.

From my pov: Deciding to be born as a human is already a hard decision for us even if we only live 80 or even 120 years. 150 Wouldn't be a problem I guess, but if people routinely started living to say 5k years old I'd definitely question my beliefs. (I already do question my beliefs ldo)

speculation: Some kind of spiritual end game (non-violent imo) is reached prior to advancements needed to gain immortality.

Even if you could stop ageing completely and cure every disease, people would only live on average a couple of thousand years. The human body is fragile and eventually your going to have a catastrophic accident.

That still doesn't make you immortal. Even if you made the body robust you still have the problem of entropy.

Yahweh would be mad. He likes us to die and be reliant on him not to.

Man is immortal and eternal, whereby sluffing off his body at death and upon return entering into a new earthly existence. the focus of present times (and for some time previous) is on immortality and to this the religious( especially in the west) mainly speak. The cream puff heaven of a mother's teats.

Not only "immorality" but the principle of "unbornness" is to be considered. This is related to man's entrance into a new earthly life. That one is "unborn" is conceptualized and within this very act one experiences the nature of one's selflessness which is appreciated as a polarity to egotistical behavior of only considering "immortality'.

Reincarnation does not last forever but the consequences are, due to repeated incarnations of the individual man, the overcoming ( better word?) of "death" which is a mighty focus of the life of Man in our present times.

Man is transformed into a new state of existence (consciousness) without death and therefore without reincarnation at what one would call the "end times" of the earth.

It's doubtful that humanity would ever find technology that would completely prevent death, as the universe itself is likely to kill us off eventually even if we don't die from age. God would get his quarry eventually.

better to throw it out the back door, so as to avoid all the possible stoning/pressing/hanging/burning at the stake, etc.
