OK, I've seen at least 3 threads about immortality. What is the sudden outburst of threads on immortality? Just, why? is there something I don't know about? was there a scientific discovery of something to make us immortal? was it the episode of Curiosity on discovery channel about immortality? I just don't get it?

Well, when someone thinks up a topic for discussion, that leads others to have their own quesions and opinions on the topic. So, they make their own thread about it. The reason there are 3 threads about immortality is because someone thought up a quesion and two other readers had their own quesions based off of the original thread.

I've done this before. I saw a thread asking for the worst songs, so I made a thread asking for songs.

Immortality is a trend that comes back to the forums from time to time. Trust me, it will pass and return again.

It's called a trend. A thread trend. One person brings this topic up after it not being seen for some months, this thread gets hella popular, and people who have questions that couldn't be answered in the large main thread then choose to make their own threads.

We had a big problem with it a few months ago when everyone was discussing sexism and feminists.

Because people gain more years of life when they ask about immortality.
Seriously though, I think it's because they don't want to derail the first thread.
