I (MostLogical) Should Commit Suicide

You say I have one and only one life and should make the most of it. However you do not know I have one life. Can you support your claim? Only 16% of the world population are non religious, and they don't even think about the afterlife. Christians and Muslims alone make up half the population and they will tell me I have another life in paradise [1]. Do I care about anyone? Yes, I care about everyone What are some of your favorite activities? Staring into space creating equations and drinking tea Do you like food? - some, I like the smell and taste of fish What is your favorite type of food? - Sandwich Do you enjoy listening to music? - I prefer silence Who is your favorite singer? - Michael Jackson but he doesn't make anymore tracks I'm not entirely sure why those questions are important because if I don't get another opportunity to do those things, and even things I hope to do it won't matter because I don't feel jealous of other people. I'm happy for others. If I only think of myself I will waste the opportunity I have to do something great. I may become old, forget the names of those closest to me and cause far greater pain, and some unfortunate person may waste their life keeping me alive despite being no longer able to mentally function. The exceptional individual - nobody keeps me solid. I was born a man but at the wrong time when all women want is to be a feminist. I bought a 'how to pick up women' book a while ago that was published when I was born, back then men could just say 'hello' to strangers and women would say 'hello' back. Now, women think 'hello' or any conversation starter is a chat up line. I have a different view of people who have passed away, I don't think they are nothing, everyone who has lived has helped to create the life we have today and we should be thankful. They may no longer exist but they shall always be remembered. I don't have any astounding companions, nor am I great or wish to be great at playing an instrument. I don't like music. My mother brought me into the world and I am thankful for the opportunity I have. I don't wish to waste it, which is why I plan to go to Mars, or help prevent someone dying who enjoys life more than me. I've explained the significance of taking my helmet off on Mars; more people will believe in mankind's greatest achievement which was walking on the moon, and will be walking on another planet. People who have been called loons for believing men have traveled no further than 400 miles in space, will be accepted, and it will be acceptable to believe we have been to Mars too. As William Wallace in the film Braveheart says: 'We all end up dead, it's just a question of how and why. Unlike the lunar missions, the goal of the Mars One Mission is to send people to live on Mars. They wouldn't do this if it weren't possible. Your source regarding Mars was unnecessary, and misleading. Although a human can live on Mars "if" they are protected from radiation, and "if" they generate oxygen. But if they take their helmet off they will die due to the radiation, lack of oxygen, and temperature etc "The atmosphere of Mars is less than 1% of Earth's, so it does not protect the planet from the Sun's radiation nor does it do much to retain heat at the surface. It consists of 95% carbon dioxide, 3% nitrogen, 1.6% argon, and the remainder is trace amounts of oxygen, water vapor, and other gases." [2] I don't have to be an astronaut, I can train to be one. I have the qualities, I am resilient, adaptable, curious, trustworthy, creative/resourceful, and am above the age of 18. The closing date of the first online astronaut application round was 31 August 2013. However Mars One will start new selection programs regularly, so I will have the possibility to apply for subsequent astronaut selection programs. [3] My idea may not be probable which is why I have a backup idea. Nobody would have to use me, as it is my own choice. It is interesting that you bring up crash dummies: "North Carolina-based elevator consultant and expert Charles A. Buckman said that people shouldn't be afraid to ride in elevators because they are extremely safe... However, the LA Times calculated that elevators make about 18 billion trips a year, so the fatality rate from elevator accidents works out to about 0.00000015 percent per trip." [4] Let's make the maths easy and say 18 people die a year from elevators, and an elevator trip is one minute. A person can expect to die after staying inside for a billion minutes, which works out to be about 1900 years. Okay that was a bit longer than I thought, it is far longer than my lifetime, but those people weren't trying to die. A) I have the qualities to go to Mars B) Who's going to stop me being a test object for an elevator? And if I do die no-one will think I committed suicide, they'll just think I was messing about and believe it was a very tragic accident. I feel confident I will still keep my rights. sources: [1] http://www.age-of-the-sage.org... [2] www.universetoday.com/22587/atmosphere-of-mars/ [3] http://www.mars-one.com...
