So you're against us still having people like Einstein around? I think it's been demonstrated pretty clearly that breeding habits follow the environment. If we were all suddenly thrust into a world where we all live to be a thousand years old you think people would still be having kids at the same pace?

I think a lot of people wouldn't have kids at all. After all, having kids is our only means of achieving "immortality" at the moment. That's no longer needed if we can just live forever ourselves.

And you believe the mind and its internal processes are capable of surviving that long even with no ageing?

As with all chaotic processes, I reckon it will decay faster than our no longer ageing meat containers [1]...
