Aren't you doing the same mistake now? "Egocentrism" which you see in the core of these attempts to prolong life - that's just a "new strategy". It has has obviously survived in humans through the billions of years of evolution (because we see it living in us now). Right now it has lead us to pursue this technology. We shall see how it goes. Maybe these efforts will prove futile, and other humans will evolve which will not have such egocentrism. Or maybe this new strategy will win and all of you (royally speaking) who think that it's bad will simply die off, because you couldn't keep up with the new evolutionary trends didn't believe that we should use tech to prolong life.

In either way, pursuing such goals is EXACTLY what it means to live. It's the process of the evolution itself. We are not alienated from it, on the contrary we are in the very heart of it and we get to experience it first-hand.

Alienation from life is more like non-accepting a certain aspect of it which is obviously happening. An aspect like people researching into biology to cheat death. So isn't that what your comment is?
