True life over religion!

What's your take on cyronics?
Cryonics, you mean.

Sorry, unless I see (besides in a movie, which is, in case you didn't know, fiction) a person wake up after being frozen for a long period of time, I cannot fully believe the capacity of this method.

I also don't know much about the procedure or how it works, but I'm sure it's fascinating. If I had more time to do research, I'd probably find out more to give you an answer. From what I understand from the concept of freezing people for long periods of time, I can't seem to find any ethical questions to the procedure besides that you're dealing with humans. If they're dead, then I don't see any problem. But if they're frozen alive, then you've got a big problem because the procedure would have to stop every single functioning organ in the body (right?) in order to be "preserved." That's pretty much the definition of killing.
