WELL glass if evolution is such a perfectionist how come everything dies   nothing gets to live [forever]  well thats a topic for another lifetime  Chet

Actually Chet I never said evolution was perfect and was not laying out an argument against overunity, I just suggested this idea as an excercise for someone to be creative with. 

There are in fact organisms that do not suffer senescence (aging leading to death) such as sea anemones.  And whether or not it is possible for a more complex creature to live forever, there are very good evolutionary reasons for it not to, which include the fact that evolution and adaptation would cease to function if one did.

Glass sounds like you think there must be a method to the madness  Chet

Chet I suggest you reread my posts more carefully then.

GLASS The words evolution and survival make sense evolution and adaptation also    anemone  never new one over 20      but evolution and   survival  adapting and DIEING don't seem like they would be in the same book   seems by now evolution would have figured out how to make more than a sea Anemone be a big surviver  Chet PS done
