The Resurrection

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

Re-animating a corpse is one thing. Re-animating a corpse with its psyche (memories, emotions, likes/dislike, etc) intact is quite another.

Maybe, but it reduces the problem substantially. For starters, almost all the things that matter to you can be reduced to a memory problem, from your identity, to your knowledge, to your likes and dislikes, and so forth.

The dead are not the only ones that lose their memories, so plenty of work is already happening to aid with amnesia, from prevention to restoration.

But a revenant would not be the same individual post-reanimation as s/he was before - there would BE no memories to recover.

I get that you’ve said repeatedly that your questions about resurrection don’t necessarily refer to the Biblical account, but you seem sort of desperate to do exactly that. All of this bringing up abiogenesis, amnesia therapy, and so on comes of as trying to show that Jesus’ resurrection was as least possible, or even plausible.
