  • Incorrect. At least read the conversation you are trying to enter. There are several references stating this should be done. One post even describes where the term “fragging” comes from. The post I responded to stated a soldier could either live with the guilt of what he does or turn on the officer that gave the order.

    You are also wrong that you can disobey an order to shoot civilians. It is not always morally acceptable. That will get someone a court martial. A soldier on guard duty on a military base sees several guys jumping a fence and entering an ammo depot. “Halt! Are you guys military? Because I’m not allowed to shoot civilians breaking onto a secured facility” … said no soldier ever in the history of soldiering.

    No, I perceive the past. It is just not editable.

    You miss the point. I’m saying you could never be in two bodies at once … thus when a copy is made (transporter, cloning, transfer to a digital backup program,etc) … the original dies. The copy is not the original … unless logic dictates that a mind can be in two bodies at once … which it does not.

    There is an easy logic test to see if a person’s “mind” is really in a clone/copy/backup. If the original and the copy exist at the same time would the original perceive itself in two places? If not, then that “exact copy” method doesn’t work … the original just dies and a near copy is made. Someone mentioned the zombie theory earlier in the post … just about as creepy.

    Nope. If it makes a perfect copy of you during transport … you die during the transport.

    If you come through with a transporter clone your original mind doesn’t inhabit both of them … so your original mind will not inhabit either of them.
