Chapter 2166 Believers
The girl's mouth revealed a slight sneer,
"Miss Huo, are you preparing to put on makeup? Are you preparing for the upcoming sacrifice?"
When she talked about the sacrifice, her back was straight and she looked very proud.
Gu Weimian's eyelids jumped.
So this girl was dressed so solemnly... for the sacrifice?
When she thought of the sacrifice, Gu Weimian felt uncomfortable.
In her mind, all she could see was her face that was sealed in the ice coffin and half melted.
And everything she experienced in the sacrificial field also made Gu Weimian, who had never believed in such gods and ghosts, feel a strong sense of unreality.
To say that this thing is completely unscientific?
Of course not.
Time is just a straight line that leads forward under certain conditions.
It is not even as uniform as many people imagine.
In some theoretical cases, time may not be irreversible.
Human death is just excessive damage to the body and cannot be used anymore.
The topic of immortality has been criticized in many places on the ethical level.
In the future, when illiteracy has been almost eliminated, many people talk about the pursuit of immortality by several emperors in ancient China with a contemptuous expression looking at ignorant humans.
In many cultures, such as ancient Egypt, death is even more respected than life.
The culture at that time believed that what was the point of living in this imperfect and dark and unfair world, it was better to save more for death.
So in ancient Egypt, all the palaces and houses where living people lived disappeared.
But the great pyramid miracle was left behind.
And death is an integral part of many religious cultures.
Even the spirit of freedom and the principle of fairness in modern society.
They are inseparable from death.
For everyone, death is the fairest thing.
Who can escape death?
However, in biology, only discussing the technical level, immortality is actually not impossible.
By 2010, genetic engineers have successfully extended the average lifespan of Caenorhabditis elegans by 6 times.
Would this work on humans as well?
Nanotechnology experts are also developing a bionic immune system using millions of nanorobots. These robots can live in the human body and open blocked blood vessels, fight viruses and bacteria, kill cancer cells, and even reverse the aging process.
Several scholars do believe that by 2050, some people will be able to achieve a-mortal status, extending their lives indefinitely as long as they are not fatally injured by accident (while the so-called immortality means that there is no possibility of death at all).
It is not impossible that someone discovered the secret of time and space by chance in the long course of history without understanding the principle.
Gu Weiman calmed down a little.
For her, everything can be explained by science, so everything can be solved by science.
Compared with many people who believe in other religious beliefs, Gu Weiman is more like a believer in science.
Compared with other religions, the greatest feature of science is not that it criticizes religious beliefs, but that the first condition of science is to believe that we know very little, and our cognition and thoughts can be continuously changed, thereby changing our lives.
