  • Wow!

  • Who, in their right mind, would limit the time in which this man has to speak?

  • We can totally avoid aging, maaaaan.

  • As humans, as beings- we are all seperated family. Living is for living while creating children is wonderful.. of course! But making children is not the only way to experience full oneness, friendship and blinding love with people. All we need is more time to couple with oneanother. Ever heard of The Venus Project? It´s radical in that sence it wishes to see the monetary system replaced by resource based economy. However, TVP allso advocates automation that would give us all the time we need.

  • just cause you don't understand doesn't mean you can assume.

  • Born on April 20, 1963

  • Gandalf!

    

  • He is 49.

  • damn, the end scared me!

  • Aubrey is an amazing man, he is literally standing against that which first attacked Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden! Go to view the end of aging and sickness, and the cause being spoken of and the means to now bring about it end, the video and site is raising money for the end of aging go to Indiegogo and type in The end of Aging, and view the call for funds and to science, also view the video cascade of ElijahTruth1 and the videos on the end of death and aging, link in blue type below
