One hundred thousand people die each day due to aging. Considered a natural cause. An article posted today described escape velocity which is a point in time when anti-aging biotechnologies increase life spans at a greater rate than aging takes life. For example, one year of advanced biotechnology increases life expectancy by more than one year. For example, thirteen months. With the following advances in biotechnology in the next year increasing life spans by fourteen months. And so on...

What about unnatural causes of death, such as cancer and other diseases? The above article addresses some unnatural causes of death and potentially very promising cures.

Come to think about it, is not conscious man's nature to solve and control nature in this way. The only living species able to know/understand nature in order to control nature. Why? To benefit himself, his family, loved ones and humanity.

All signs of tumors disappeared in the nanoshells group within 10 days. These mice remained cancer-free after treatment. Tumors in the other two test groups continued to grow rapidly. All mice in these groups were euthanized when the tumors reached 10 millimeters in size. The mean survival time of the mice receiving no treatment was 10.1 days; the mean survival time for the group receiving saline injections and laser treatments was 12.5 days.

Wait, if the nanoshell mice were cured, why only 2.4 days better than the cancer mice? Something don't add up.

What about unnatural causes of death, such as cancer and other diseases?

The rest of your point not withstanding, cancer and other diseases are natural causes of death.

Cancer and disease are natural processes unless caused by man. The vast majority of disease is naturally occurring. Even man caused disease would be a natural reaction to a man related stimulus.
