"They will long to die, but death will flee from them." I am suspicious this may be something to do with transhumanism. Normally you get old and die but what if something blocks that and/or you get downloaded into an electronic existence and can't die or evolve? If you get stuck on the blockchain or some such, maybe it becomes impossible to die.
I agree, if you follow certain antediluvian commentaries, it seems genetic corruption (the effects of 'angels' mixing with humans) during the Noahic period led to an absolute corruption of man. We openly know that WEF's aim is transhumanism and that the elite commit horrendous acts to attempt to prolong life, showing how far they are willing to corrupt themselves to achieve this goal...If someone turned up and offered an imitation of eternal life how many will take it? and as the verse says "As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man."
"If someone turned up and offered an imitation of eternal life how many will take it? " Yes, I think a lot would, especially if they market it as taking away pain, anxiety, ill health, etc too. Maybe they will say they could control brain neurotransmitters to prevent depression, etc, in fact they've already started in with that one. I remember when i was a kid, the tv told me to strive for certain things to be happy but then when I got those things, there were always more things it told me I'd need. Happiness was a carrot on a stick and i was running on a treadmill but finally I realized their route does not lead where they claim it does, in fact it mostly leads the opposite way. And having wandered so far in the wrong direction, it's slow and painful to find my way back. But many have not even realized that subterfuge yet and I fear for them. If they are promised a magic fixit solution, many will likely go for it despite this reality's track record of failures in that department.

Wow. That sounds exactly like how it would be if they downloaded or captured your soul in an AI matrix.
