Good idea, but, if someone is a devout Christian, I generally do not discuss
life extension issues with her or him. It's not that I don't want them to
get involved. Rather, I just don't like get into discussions about
Christianity and such. Such a retort would likely get her or him to run to
the Bible or debate the finer points of Jesus's doctrine. At that point,
I'd say, "I think my Mom is calling me. Gotta go!"
