This distinction has nothing to do with "desperate [..] wish for personal immortality." It's a praticle distinction.Fare enough but practical to what purpose? To facilitate discussion or describe a supposed reality? I find myself wondering too if the mind is accepted as the software, how easy is it to re-program it and how easy to wipe the 'hard disk' and instal a new OS?
The Human Race is insane.
