While many biogerontologists (scientists who study aging) find SENS "worthy of discussion", some contend that de Grey's programme is too speculative given current scientific research, referring to it as "fantasy rather than science", and the product of "extreme arrogance".
Taking the importance of the self to new extremes of arrogance.
How can anyone feel that they are so important that they deserve to live indefinitely? Young men and women are out in the middle east right now having their lives blown away by warfare mostly due to the rapidly growing population of our planet. And we are only living longer nowadays and growing in population even as mortals. Those young soldiers....lost lives...so unimportant to the person who thinks they are important enough to live vastly longer than nature intended.
extreme arrogance.

Nature has intentions?

Luddism.

new term - mootism
the act of using other people theories to describe in one word the writtings of another.

I am part of nature. Not nature itself.
BTW, my own list is simple:
1 - Get #1 rank in Aces High.

That's correct in principle, except that you're late by quite a while - there's already a couple of words coined for this, e.g. "gist". Your argument quoted above is a form of luddism. It's also nonsensical in arguing that some parts of nature are more natural than others. viz. saying it's unnatural for something that nature allows, to happen. Man is a natural thing. What man does is therefore nothing else than natural. Nothing that happens in the universe is unnatural, or else it wouldn't happen. The insistence that we mustn't live beyond our present age is nonsensical in a number of ways, first in pretending that there's some obligation that we should die sooner than later, second that it's inherently arrogant to want to live longer and healthier. It's an opposition to technological and general human progress, for the sake of it (or for some circular justification). It's luddism.
I suggest you start a new thread to not derail this one.

I don't have a bucket list. I've already got a wonderful husband, wonderful kids, and I go to work every day serving people that I respect and admire. Everything else is just extra. :)
Perhaps it would be nice to have a yard of soft grass that I could walk on without either burning or cutting bare feet. Other than that, I'm set. :)

4) Go back to Philmont with my son, and climb Baldy Mountain
I did that when I was 15. I had a blast going on that trip....23 years ago.
