Why Do The Bene Gesserit Fear Immortality?

Human beings, like all other life on this planet, are mortal. And ever since the ancient world we have attempted to find ways to extend our lives. Alchemy is a branch of philosophy created in the ancient world. Those who called themselves alchemists attempted to perfect and purify certain elements, many believed that through perfection of the human soul and body one could create the ultimate work of alchemy, the idea is often thought of today as the creation of the Philosopher's stone. The philosopher's stone would be able heal any illness, turn any metal into gold, and most importantly grant immortality. Though people have been trying to figure out how to create the philosopher's stone since 300 CE, no one has ever accomplished this.
