I assume we humans are complex many-particle systems and our consciousness is produced by a many-particle system (our brain). Such a many-particle system is fully described by the knowledge of a state in a Hilbert space. Assuming at time t=0 we had two identical "human systems" in the same state. In what way would the consciousness of these two systems differ? Would the two brains produce the identical consciousness?
Assuming there would be a multiverse producing lots of universes and some universes would generate complex life systems and this would happen infinity times. Then it should be possible that after my death a system (almost) identical to mine should be formed after a very long time and in that way I would live again. It is just a question of probabilities.
What do you think about it?
I've always found arguments based on the necessity of every conceivable variation being present somewhere in a limitless array of universes unpersuasive. Moreover, if the after-life in question is entirely disconnected from my current identity, I don't really care. It has no bearing on anything I would do or believe here and now.
Besides I already look forward to a productive after life as mulch.
