Is cryonics trying to “cheat death” ?
Death is the termination of life, not a creature with a scythe who has a just claim to the lives he takes. (Death hates to be anthropomorphized.) Such thinking is part of the same superstition that claims that vastly extended lifespans are unnatural. Death by diabetes, malaria, smallpox and freezing without clothing or shelter are natural. Civilization is based on the use of intelligence to survive and improve the conditions of life.
