Let's say that you have the means to have one, would you choose it? Cryonics, according to wikipedia, is the "the practice of cryopreserving humans or animals that can no longer be sustained by contemporary medicine until resuscitation may be possible in the future."
If you have the choice, would you choose it? Or would you rather be cremated or buried, either which case you are gone forever.
Me, I would opt for cryonics. I believe that with all the technological advancements that we are experiencing these days, future resuscitation may be possible.

Cryonics seems to be a good idea, I'll just wait and see about its future advancement before I decide. But right now, I'm opting for cremation, and my innards are to be given away, either to charity or to be sold, whichever it is that the estranged loved ones decides what to do.

Because I don't want to be brought back to life in this world I would not choose Cryonics,I only want to come back to this earth ofter God has purified it with fire. I have let my family know that when I die I want to be cremated. Being buried in the earth is too expensive. My family is too scatered to be visiting my grave. I wouldn't know if they visited it if they did.
