Man, What Is Wrong With People?

People are the only animals smart enough to know that they exist, and at the same time, know they will surely cease to exist.   Most human achievement above survival level has at its root the desire to deny this death.  Over time humans have created many belief systems to this end.  Some of them are mass, some of them personal.  Some of them seek this denial of death via acts they believe affirms life, some of them even seek this immortality via their own death.  

Or at least that is one theory...

I thought we created YouTube and the KFC double-down to stop this kind of thought.

If the Immorality Project shaped hole in your being can be filled by a sandwich where the bread is replaced by friend chicken then I feel nothing but envy for you.
