Technically, dead people can be revived, if they've been dead for only a few minutes. This is called clinical death, and it can be reversed. But for people who've been dead for over a week, then probably not.

First of all, when people are dead, they immediately start to rot. They will start disintegrating to smaller forms. When that happens, a horrible smell will start to rise, then eventually be disintegrated to the point they they are only skeletons. If someone dead has been left in the open for a week, then it will be a skeleton in only about that long.

This is the main reason why someone dead can't be revived. If someone is brain-dead, but is not clinically dead, then you can't revive that person as well, because their brain is not functioning/responding.

Once a person's heart stops beating, delivering oxygen and nutrients to their cells ceases, resulting in irreversible damage. The brain suffers particularly quickly, leading to permanent loss of function. Current medical technology is unable to reverse this extensive damage, making it impossible to revive someone who has died.

What do you think of the possibility that with future technology we will live forever and resurrect the dead?

Not going to happen ever. We may see the time when humans can live over 100 on average but to live forever is impossible. Your body wears out, and that is the nature of things. No way will technology ever be able to keep us alive forever. As far as raising the dead only God can do that. Once you are dead you are dead and no technology can alter that state. You are brain dead in just 4 to 6 minutes after your heart stops beating. Once the brain is dead you are dead and nothing can change that. That cannot be reversed period.

Will you be dead in 2080?

Since it is the year 2011 as I type, the year 2080 is 69 years in the future. I personally am presently 59 years old, and I do not see any reasonable chance that I will live to be 118 years old, although there have been a very few people who have lived to that age. There are, of course, other people younger than me who have an excellent chance of living to the year 2080.
