There isn't any license to live, without the added words "for a little while." Everybody dies. And while I don't like the idea of dying, might it be that my early death by their killing me will give the rich folks a chance to develop a method whereby they can live for a thousand years, or maybe forever? Of course, there will come a time where they might want to die, but can't. Revelation 9:6 says, "During those days people will seek death but will not find it; they will long to die, but death will elude them." Maybe death at the right time is a blessing. After all, eternal life in Heaven through Jesus is a greater blessing than life in this world.
