You know those sci-fi teleporters like in Star Trek where you disappear from one location then instantaneously reappear in another location? Do you trust that they are safe to use?

To fully understand my question, you need to understand the safety concerns regarding teleporters as explained in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQHBAdShgYI

I wouldn’t, because the person that reappears aint me, its a fucking clone. Teleporters are murder machines. Star Trek is a silent massacre!

    Your focus on “Process” instead of “Program” is making the soul argument. The “process” you’re arguing for is a soul.

    Sorry, no. But trying to make you understand. You are deeply mistaken, but I’m not interesting in departing with you any longer.

      But trying to make you understand.

      Yeah, there’s your problem. You’re trying to make me understand it your way and criticizing me for not doing so, instead of trying to persuasively state your own viewpoints standing on their own.

      It’s an approach that I can imagine would feel frustrating when I already understand your views and am talking about them.
