Just listened to an interview (on NPR's To The Best Of Our Knowledge-link may not last) with Aubrey du Grey, chief scientist of The Methuselah Foundation, who believes that we have within our near-future medical grasp the indefinite postponement of death, making possible lifespans of the same kind: indefinite. He figures we'll have this capability, which he expresses as a complete understanding of the mechanical systems of the body, within 30 years. He likens humans to vintage cars or airplanes: as long as their systems are kept running they keep running.

I have felt this to be true for several years, that science will ultimately "see God" if He is there.
