Stand with Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan -- with democracy and civilization against tyranny and barbarism

Individualist, pro-technology, pro-democracy, anti-religion. I speak only for myself and not for any ideology, movement, or party. It has been my great good fortune to live my whole life free of "spirituality" of any kind. I believe that evidence and reason are the keys to understanding reality; that technology rather than ideology or politics has been the great liberator of humanity; and that in the long run, human intelligence is the most powerful force in the universe.
God doesn't exist
Evolution happened
Global warming is real
Homosexuality is normal
Aging is a curable disease
The election was not stolen
Everything "spiritual" is a lie
Free speech is for everybody
Humans do not have "souls"
Men can't become women
Fetuses are not persons
Words are not violence
Taiwan is a nation
Pluto is a planet

Please understand that I would never try to impose my own preferences on someone else (other than as a parent, in raising my own kids). If someone wants to live forever, and if they can take a pill to do so, so be it. I would not want to though, not unless a "celestial being" (no, not the type released on airplanes) made it happen. ;)
Probably I should get off m' lazy butt and do some searching and reading, but perhaps you have some ideas. What would happen to the human population if such a pill (just an example, since many things could extend life and comfort) existed? And to the resources we consume? Do you think the human birthrate would decline? If so, do you think it would be due to people choosing not to have children, or because of something else?
This was another interesting post, Infidel. :)

Chell, thanks for reading. A proper response to this would really be longer than what I'd want to put in the comments system, so I'll add a posting about it.
