Body -- ixperiencitness connectivity problem argument
More actions
What is it in the same body that connects the same ixperiencitness from moment to moment. The science of superimmortality predicts that it is the close similarity in structure and functioning of the body from one moment to the next that makes the body produce a consciousness that has the same ixperiencitness over time. If someone demands that another body with the same continuation of structure and functioning does not create the same ixperiencitness, as the mortalists do then what causes this difference? If the ixperiencitness is not the same even if the structure and functioning is the same, how can we predict what different ixperiencitness will be produced?
How much discontinuity can there be in the body before the ixperiencitness changes? How long can a person be dead? How much new matter? How fast can the new matter be replaced in the body? How much change can there be in placement in space of the restored body and it still produces the same ixperiencitness? How does the old ixperiencitness replace the new different ixperiencitness in the same body? Superimmortality predicts that the ixperiencitness is produced by the structure and functioning of the body. When the structure and functioning changes enough then the ixperiencitness changes as well. Connectivity is created by way of closeness of structure and functioning from one moment to the next.
