Let’s talk about LIFE & DEATH
Life & Longevity:
- If you could choose your lifespan, how long would you want to live and why?
- Does living longer always mean living better? What's more important - quantity or quality of life?
- Should there be a mandatory retirement age, or should people work as long as they're able?
- What life advice would you give to someone who just turned 18?
- If medical technology could keep us alive indefinitely, should we pursue it?
Health & Healthcare:
Is healthcare a human right or a privilege? Why?
Should unhealthy lifestyle choices (smoking, excessive drinking) affect someone's access to free healthcare?
Would you want to know if you had a terminal illness, or would you prefer not to know?
Is preventive medicine more important than treating existing illnesses?
Death & Dying:
Should people have the right to choose when and how they die?
If you could leave one message for the world after you die, what would it be?
Are elaborate funerals necessary, or are they a waste of resources?
Should organ donation be automatic (opt-out) rather than voluntary (opt-in)?
What legacy do you want to leave behind?
Ethical Dilemmas:
If cryonics actually worked, who should have access to it - everyone or only the wealthy?
At what point is a person truly "gone" - when the heart stops or when the brain dies?
Should families have the right to override a person's wishes about organ donation or life support?
