I think this is a relatively fair assessment of where I stand. I see that thing we call death as part of this life. As such, it makes sense to me to find a way to accept it.
In fact, despite my current love of this life, immortality in this body, as this person I am right now, does not appeal to me. Maybe it's because I do believe there is something after death. I want to (eventually) get to the next adventure when I'm done here.

I, personally, believe that human immortality (or close to it) will someday be possible, assuming we continue on the technology road we are on now. My question had to do with the comparison that you made about finding it easier to believe in this possibility that has been (so far) disproved verses something (spirit) that has never been disproved.
