Technical feasibility of bringing the dead ones back to life
Hi,
I'm an agnosticist. All of this may, or may not, be the fruit of a blind randomness associated with laws of organization.
But, if that was true, then I would feel really sad for all these puppies who have to be killed because the house can't allow for more dogs. Or all these wasted lives anywhere and at any time. It is difficult not to claim that a "second chance" isn't without appeal.
So, I was speculating about the technical feasibility of bringing back the dead, not via transcendance but through technoscientific means.
I think: if physicalism is true, then we have to lean towards some kind of reductionnism and embrace that biology is less ontologically fundamental than physics. DNA is a molecule and all living being are after all a certain set of atoms.
But then, perhaps, in a distant future, say in 4 000 000 years, intellect, technoscientific means and data would be so gigantic that the "bookkeeping" of atoms, their history, may be found, and then we'll get the recipe for each living being. Then, a really fine-tuned way to arrange the required atoms, may do the job. And then, someone just got revived. Also, as the person used to be dead in-between, the time was not felt passing these millions of years. It is like the last time alive was yesterday, like a trivial wake up from a sleep.
How unplausible do you think it is?
