Dealing with the Fear of Death

How does someone explain superimmortality to a child especially when they see others around them die? Superimmortality is a complicated science. There are many different principles that apply to being conscious again after death. One being that there is no guarantee that you will ever be alive and conscious again. However, there are only a few physical conditions where you can never become conscious again. One of these ultimate realities is where there can and will never be any space, time, or matter existing again. Just because the conditions do not exist at a particular period of time for conscious beings, to exist in a multiverse does not means that some time in the future these condition will not change again to be able to produce conscious life again. The evidence is over whelming that this universe will be able to produce conscious beings for at least trillions of years into the future. If the multiverse is eternal then it is likely to have been creating conscious life for ever into the past and likely will continue to produce conscious beings into the future. Since superimmortality does not require your current body to produce a consciousness that you will experince it is likely that a conscious version of will be produced at least several times in the future.

To begin with the production of conscious life will be a random process that some places in the universe will produce and other places will not be able to produce. Once conscious life is established some place in the universe, another process can then begin to occur. That process is knowing that consciousnesses can be controlled for desired purposes by controlling to various ways and degrees the structure and functioning of matter. The more that we know the better we will be at controlling and producing desired consciousnesses. Since we will be experiencing these consciousness we will want to produce the ones that we desire to experience and not the ones that are awful.

You tell children that there is the potential for every imaginable nice future that they can imagine and they can work toward seeing that these potential wonderful events that they will experience will happen by treating others well, by taking care of the earth so that conscious beings can have good lives in to the future and constantly supporting the pursuit of knowledge. This life is just one of many different conscious lives that each of us can experience. The time in between lives passes in a time that appears shorter than the blink of the eye. There is no conscious experiences or life that can not be duplicated by replicating the correct structures and functionings of matter in another body.

You tell children the truth even it might be difficult to accept when we seem so singular but in fact are so multiple and can consciously exist in many different bodies and types of bodies through space and time. People are not discretely different and unique from each other. Between any two conscious people there can be more than one conscious person that are consciously like both the other two. This means consciousness and ixperiencitness are continuum like concepts. This means that you are, when it comes to consciousness, gradiently different than other humans not discretely different. Even if your consciousness is not ever exactly duplicated many aspects of your consciousness will be.

At the very least superimmortality give us the ultimate form of legacy immortality. Matt mentions this type of immortality at 5:57 in this you tube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MXFTUw_G2I .

Mat also says in this video Death is like the party is over. But what's worse Matt quotes Christopher Hitchens as sayings that death is like the party is going to continue but you have to leave. Superimmortality shows that it just seems like you are leaving the party in fact you never do. The party as well as you keep going through out space and time. The party never gets boring because it is constantly changing as do you.
