I get how in a simulation you could feel real pain from being repeatedly beaten in the head with a baseball bat, but if it's just a simulation....neither your head, nor the bat is real...then it cannot kill you. Right?because the matter we experience is really a mental construct. the sensations you receive, such as pain, are all part of the simulation. and your physical body functions the same as all matter, thus can be broken like all matter. dying would be when your body/brain can't function, but as you say this would not kill your mind. though this would also be akin to the concept of an afterlife and an immortal soul.
I thought you said matter doesn't exist?
So...is this something you're arguing because you're bored or something you actually believe?
