Hi @dysfunctional, nice article presenting a lot of interesting ideas, definitely made me want to dig the sources to learn more :)
I understand that your point was not really about "living" forever but more about "experiencing life" forever by distorting your perception of time. Maybe i'm wrong (and please let me know if i am), but I think that Einstein's relativity theory is more about the possibility of "desynchronizing" the time between two clocks/persons thanks to the influence of gravitational force, thus making time a relative dimension like space. I don't think that would mean that one of the person/clock would experience time differently, it would just mean that they are not in the same referential anymore for the dimension "time".
As you said two persons in different trains going in the same direction at the same speed would see each other as immobile, but they are still both traveling :)
Also i didn't mean to do some link-dropping but since you mentioned biological immortality, here's an article i posted two days ago on the subject. I'd be happy to have your opinion on that:

Have a nice day :)
Yeah, my idea is to regard immortality as a subjective experience or as a phenomenon which is not absolute like we know it by definition.
Yes, I am aware why Einstein theorized it, but my point was just to say that time is not an absolute concept and in certain conditions people might experience it in a different way and that doesn't have to be based on their subjective processes.
I will check your link! Thanks a lot for your meaningful comment! Cheers :)
