How "reincarnation" might work?
#15
RE: How "reincarnation" might work?
Thanks all.

AFFT I 've thought about this. It's a sure bet someone (probably human) will eventually try a virtual recreation of a past earth sometime.

mh.brewer passing on your knowledge to younger people might also work as well, in a fashion

robvalue Thanks for the fair shake. I think things are defined by what they do. Water is water because it makes you wet (and all the other physical properties...) A being that does robvalue things (to himself and others) is robvalue.

ignoramus is being hypothetical so important? Is it unimportant if you are not sure (50/50 chance) if a unknown guy may or may not to beat you up next week?

Jormungadar If that "me" was a close enough copy. I would feel guilty because this would have revealed something about my character. it would show i was capable of theft as much as if i had done it myself.
It would prove i was a thief/murderer/etc (potentially at least for now). I guess there might be some distance, mostly a suspicion that it was an "bad" clone.

Remember that in an infinite universe  your history (or just the important parts) can be recreated just as the rest of you can be.

And what if someone convinced you, you were a clone without a past (when you were not really), would you cease to be yourself?
