The only thing is, I don't care what TM says. I was just pointing out what seemed obvious to me. I'm still kind of in awe that nobody seemed to make the same connection that I did. Besides, even if I was insecure, I'd still be better than him, becuase I don't deal with it by insulting people for no reason (I only insult when there is a reason). So there.
You're merely reenforcing Ephesos' argument there.

But it's practically the same thing when you're deciding who gets to live and who gets to die based on who can afford it. It's dooming people to die when they can't pay to live, which is as semantically close to killing them as possible.

EDIT: I hate quote tags.
No it isn't, people won't be born with the guarantee that they will live forever then just as we aren't born today with the guarantee that we will live forever. If scientists provide a substance that will allow people to live forever, it's not the inherent right of the people who who purchased it, it's something they've bought. If I may use another commonplace example, are you born with the guarantee that you will own a car or do you have to buy one in order to own it?

I agree.

Because it's clearly the poor's fault that they can't adequately compensate the poor, maligned inventors whose only benefit was a vastly superior and incalculably more expensive education that enabled them to create the devices that only help the worthy portions of humanity.

I wonder, though. If we invent a cure for death, could you consider putting a price on it tantamount to a new holocaust?
Whether or not it's their fault, they still can't pay for the product, to put it simply, if you can't pay for a pizza, are you going to get a pizza? The "vastly superior and incalcuably more expensive education" is irrelevant.

In answer to your question, no. Are we killing now? Will be killing in the future? Or will we be preventing death?

Is Limbo the same as Purgatory?

Limbo is where the good non-christians go.
Purgatory is where the people who were neither good nor bad go.
Heaven is where the good christians go.
The 10 rings of Hell (I'm not sure if that included Purgatory and/or Limbo, so it may be 8 or 9) is where the evil people go.

As for a simple explanation to the "more or less of infinity" thing, using SoT's logic:
There is an infinate amount of real numbers (R). There is also an infinate amount of even numbers (E). If R=inf. and E=inf. then R=E. But that conflicts with the statement that R/2=E (as E is only the even numbers), so there is in this case half an amount of infinity that is still infinate.

DeVlish's response to your last question can be found here.
G3 and G2 are very similar in their skill setup.
Try searching a little bit before asking questions like these.

Well go figure, do you expect the poor to pay for what the people who invent this stuff give them?
Hell no.
