> A single look at our universe shows us that even if it were created by some anthropormorphic God that he did not intend for us to live for ever.

I came to the exact opposite conclusion upon taking "a single look" or simply looking at the obvious basics of the universes' visible design.

> On the largest scale, the second law of thermodynamics makes it impossible.

Not at all. There are an increasing number of challenges by physicists based on cutting edge experiments that classic laws of thermodynamics might either be flawed or require augmentation.

> On a smaller scale, our sun has only got a few billion years of life left in it.

By then man has developed technologies such as "stargates" (traversible wormholes) to relocate to other worlds orbiting newer stars.

> On a smaller scale, very large rocks come by and hit the planet every so often; these rocks have caused mass extinctions in the past, and homo sapiens probably won't fare too well when the next one hits. (As opposed to roaches.)

Aside from God's all-powerful ability to deflect stray objects from impacting the "new world," eventually mankind's technology will be sufficiently advanced to prevent impacts from stray bodies.

> On a smaller scale there are all sorts of biological things that could kill us all. An airborne version of AIDS could do a job on the human race.

Genetic perfection would give the human body the ultimate weapon against such invaders, and possessing greater adaptation/survivor capabilities than even the cockroach.

> On a personal scale, our bodies are not made to last. We do not have infinite storage capacity in our brains, and the genetic code in our very cells keeps them from reproducing forever. (Which protects us from cancers.)

Genetically perfect human bodies will continue to self-repair forever. Our brains could easily develop unprecedented storage capacities in ways scientists cannot fathom. For example the laws of physics that allows the incredible intelligence of the human brain, could work with multidimensional laws of physics to access brain cells in an infinite multiple dimensional array of space-time. After the code that terminates cells ceases, then perfect genetic coding will cause our body to self-repair without cell degradation, maintaining its optimal healthful peak forever. Cancer is indeed a degenerated version of what scientists call the "immortality gene" run amok.

> If God were interested in human beings living forever, he might have corrected a few of the universe's design flaws in the analysis stage. Of course, then again, we might be the beta version.

As I have explained, these seeming "design flaws" are not really obstacles at all.

In a few million years from now, upon looking back don't say I didn't tell you so. ;-)
