The mind can be saved on a hard drive. The soul, however, can not.

The problem with your assumption that “hell on earth is near” is that Nancy Pelosi and the rest of the democrat party have a brain to upload ........

I’ll never make it. Probably a blessing to both me and the rest of the world.

Is that just a few years before, or just a few years after, Manhattan goes under three feet of water due to global warming?

Until it actually happens, all you have is that cute, feel-good statement and no proof.

No, to both predictions.

This comes from a materialistic view of human life. In it, humans are just deterministic machines. So is a computer. So, in the incompletely formed mind of this ‘scientist’, you can upload a human mind to a computer.

Pity.

People say the funniest things. A memory is fairly specific, a mind is still badly defined. Downloading a memory, could be a fairly technical goal, but downloading a mind is a fantasy. I would be like predicting when we will be able to see a soul. We will have a computer sophisticated enough to determine how many angels can dance on the head of a pin. Both can be stated, but cannot be answered because souls and angels are a little bit more difficult to put in scientific terms.

Bottom line, download your mind if you like, but don’t let them destroy your body until you are REALLY SURE!!!
