Many kings are at the same time the god's representative on Earth. Elected presidents in so-called democratic nations use the same trick. Cryonics, as all other major technological advance are disruptive for the social order built for the profit of "the have"". Science, as a source of technology is bad for them because it launches the dices at random and no one know who will be the winner. There is simply few probability that it favor the same group as today, so that group knows it has everything to lost and nothing to win here. They'll use religion, politics, laws, brain washing with sport, fashion, and so on... to destroy any significant progress in any domain. The only solution: Kill them when you can! (end) Yvan, you seem just as bad as the middle eastern religious fanatics we worry about on this list! : ( And I think your idea that all major technological advances are seen as bad by those in power is simply wrong. Often those IN power are there because they know how to exploit good developments coming down the pike. And this will certainly continue. I think I would have to meet you in person to get a real feel for where you are coming from. Your post really disturbed me.
