That's not bad though (having a go at death itself, we're mere machines so why not), we have alleviated suffering and early death with medicine for centuries. They? They are illiterate morons when it comes to biology and will believe anything grifters will sell them, like cold treatments, injecting stem cells and whatever other "silver bullet" treatment. Almost funny how they are getting fooled if it wasn't diverting so much effort away from real progress.
Well, can't go with you on that first part. A believe I hold is that in free will and chance/randomness. As a deterministic approach would be a prerequisite for humans to be transfered into states of ones and zeros, it would mean, that everything about us is predetermined and I simply refuse to subscribe to that idea.
But the second part, spot on.
