All body parts will be replaceable. A computer will function like a human with the ability to recognize feelings and respond in a feeling way. We will then be able to copy ourselves using the advanced technologies. Maybe a few decades later, a way will be found to input our memories and thoughts to the new body, so another “we” will appear to live permanently after we are dead. Then we can live as long as we want.
