Immortality would be great for the human race if--

Human aging (memory loss, increasing bone fragility, etc) could be prevented at the same time; and, most importantly,

Human fertility dropped to nothing. We are already pushing the limits of what the planet can sustain--perhaps more than that, given the tens of millions of people who starve every year. An immortal population that still reproduces is a report card for disaster, IMO.
