Hello,
if you look at the threads for the movie Byzantium, there is one where you are asked if you would choose this sort of immortality. In the case of Byzantium it was vampirism.
So, imagine you would get a letter that says that if you leave your house tonight at 10 pm and drive in a certain direction than you would receive the same immortality as Adaline. And the letter contains certain information that make it a 100% trustworthy.
Would you?
My answer: Yes, in a heartbeat. -

As much as I hate the aging of my physical body it is after all only a temporary vessel for who I really am..and always have been and will be! So no I'll just wait until I'm released back into my immortality as a spiritual being

But she wasn't immortal. She just didn't age. And apparently never got sick or seriously injured.
Big difference between immortality and looking the same way until something kills you. Doesn't sound so great to me. -

No. it would be a nightmare. everyone I cared for would grow old and die, and i would be left alone. There would be nobody who rememebered what i remembered, nobody i could talk about past times with, i would have to watch my sons die, my grandchildren (if any) die. it would be horrible.

Instead of "immortality" you should say "eternal youth". There's a big difference. Immortality with aging is not at all good. But immortality with staying young - I would probably take it and would only rarely regret it afterwards.
