: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.

No one has made me aware of the flaws. What journals has this research been published in? Are you sure you aren't catching wiffs of pseudo-science?

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

If those technologies are feasible, there are only a finite number of stars. And far fewer with the right characteristics.

: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.

We will never be able to generate the energy required to deflect a Mars-sized body, such as the one that impacted and created the moon 4.5 billion years ago. (Even deflecting one the same size as that puny one that destroyed the dinosaurs might be beyond our reach.)

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

Really? Aren't animals genetically perfect? How come all of them possess many of the flaws that we do? You need to realize that we are animals just like them. We simply evolved a large brain to survive, rather than the ability to stomp our enemies flat like elephants. No, we haven't been designed genetically perfect. Although who knows what humans may be able to do genetic-wise in the next few centuries?

: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.

As for all the infinite dimensional stuff, I think you may have been listening to physicist pipe dreams. (Physicists have got some awesome pipe dreams, let me tell you.)
As for the cancer. Your immortality genes are genes with something taken out that was present in the original design. Telemores [sic?]. Are you saying we were designed imperfect? I thought it was supposed to be something about Adam's sin and gradual decay because of living without God.

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

Only if you invoke magic. And God didn't seem to get around to creating that.
