Somebody should talk to the OP's mother about cryonics.

Why? They haven't even proven human revival is possible. Until they do it is nothing more than vaporware. More of a scam. And this statement... "We believe that the damage caused by current cryopreservation is limited and can someday be repaired in the future." I don't really care what you believe when selling a scientific solution. What is proven? Why do you believe that? Good marketing? Actual data that shows it is limited?

But hey, by the time they fail to prove it correct you'll be dead and have no recourse or care. Thanks for the money.

If you're waiting for revival to be shown then your missing the point. The whole idea is to halt decay while there are problems that can't be solved yet. It's an ambulance ride to the future.

It's a little late for that, unless you plan on performing a séance.

I did read part of the article but didn't finish because it is too depressing to read about someone murdering family out of ignorance. Thanks for letting me know how it ended.

There are other religions that will make the same promises for less money.

Fuck off.

Leave provocative statements as-is and censor succinct and appropriate responses? You should reconsider what effect that policy has given context.

Goodbye.
