PRELUDE
Humanity is not born by accident; neither is humanity meant to die by accident. Life goes on and on and on; to fulfil nature’s purpose of striving to surpass him/herself and others to attain perfection and acquire the secret to prolong life. The oxygen and the fluids needed by humanity to sustain life have expiry dates: Perhaps 70 years or more to some extent.
Human life is created through highly scientific intelligent design. The ‘evil’ in human being is the desire to become scientific and independent as the creators. Being good meant the new human being would remain primitive and subservient to highly scientific intelligence to advancement. When human beings missed the opportunity through the story of the “tree of life and knowledge’, they were condemned to have shorter life span.
There is a scientific way to prolong human life. Humanity must strive for high intelligent secrets to find scientific solution to elongate the lifespan of the oxygen-energy-fluids-human system-reactor to promote life growth so as to conquer humanity’s last surviving hurdle: Death.
