Welcome Rokugosha! 
Yes, Vikings believed in Norse THEOLOGY. Even today, many still worship the Aesir.

Genetic surgery is closer then you may think. All we need to do is figure out how to send in a benign virus (or other carrier) to alter the code that extends telomere. |
yes but how long till you think that will be possable. the 500 years est. I said was from a genticist (is that how you say it genticist) |
We're already doing it. The Olympics committee will be testing for "gene doping" in the next summer games. This is where you attach extra DNA to a dead or benign virus, and inject it. The virus incorporates the DNA into the athlete's DNA in an attempt to suppress myostatin, increase mitochondria density, or some other performance enhancing alteration. |
If you are right then i have not heard of it and i am then sorry but if you have ay links that Be would be great.

Just google "gene doping". This'll get you started:

Hello all.
My name is JC, and I'm glad to be here.
I'm an agnostic and I joined because I want to learn as much as I can from you.
I'm surely there will be plenty of intellectually satisfying discussions here. I have the impression that most people here in atheistforums are very intelligent (compared to other forums), so I'm looking forward to talking to you all.
Cheers

Hey everyone, Jesus Christ is an agnostic; pass it on.
