Re: if we were all immortal would life have any meaning to it?
Well, let's put it this way. What is life to you? Take away all things associated with death, and then what is life? For some, the meaning of life could be to explore the universe, which, because everything is constantly moving forwards in time, will be different every time they go to the same location in space. So their quest will never be over. This time dimension can be applied to many quests, making the answer to your question "yes". On the other hand, some have already completed/will complete their quests, so unless they find another, the answer will be no. If you really want to be basic, the objective of living creatures, according to scientists, is reprodution. And that quest ends only when your life ends (assuming we stop aging, if not, well, menopause), and if your life is infinitely long...bow chika wow wow!
Re: if we were all immortal would life have any meaning to it?
Honestly, if we were immortal, life would have meaning up to a certain point. The reason we do things in life is because we know that we only have a certain amount of time to live. If we were immortal, then at some point, most people wouldn't really care about things anymore. Being mortal, we stick to deadlines and try harder to achieve our goals so we can go on to lead lives that are successful and allow us to leave a legacy after we pass away. But what happens when you don't die? Death is a part of life. It is somewhat a way to free ourselves from the struggles, trials, and tribulations of life. (when it's meant to be of course.) If we were immortal, it would mean an endless cycle of the daily grind. After a while, we'd either end up in a state of anarchy because people stopped caring, or everyone will become lifeless and just go through the motions....
Re: if we were all immortal would life have any meaning to it?
I think that we were all immortal than life would not have any meaning to it. This is because we would have so much time that we would not fell pressure to achieve something. We will not be motivated by anyone or anything. For instance, most people believe that they should live everyday like their last day so they don't regret it in the end. Well, if we have so much time in our hands then we will procrastinate more than ever. So the main point is that with immortality, LIFE will be meaningless.
