I'd suggest "The most human human". It's unfortunate that those calling themselves "futurists" somehow seem to think that being alive forever... is kind'o shallow.

Death may be inevitable, but hopefully those who preach from the pulpit, have a little more depth to them and have hopefully examined their lives more carefully than to simply say, I'll just live forever. In that sense, I think Jobs had the right idea. If life were "infinite" or even significantly prolonged (i.e. 10 times the current life expectancy), I think we'd have a lot of thinking to do to come to terms with such a new reality.
