Constantly Learning
God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him.

Well, that’s disappointing. There goes my idea of plasma that can freeze water .
It is good for searching trending post. I like how it prioritize the time and user engagement of the post. Also, unlike google search, it shows image which you may find interest in. This might be a niche opinion.
It’s not a stupidly easy question. It is extremely hard. Calculating the average temperature of all molecules on Earth is extremely hard due to the vast range of temperatures across different environments, from the Earth’s core to the atmosphere. Calculation isn’t the problem but collecting data is. You need to collect all the data that distributed widely on earth. Factors like altitude, latitude, and specific conditions in different regions making collecting an accurate data even harder.
I like this idea. You explained it simple enough to be understood and provided relatable examples.
For example, let’s say ten years ago someone took a picture of me and I demanded that this picture must not be shared or posted online. Now if ten years later I ask the photographer to send me the picture and I post it online, then the photographer and I broke the rules. I certainly did not get consent from my past self. So now the question of whether or not I am my past self comes up. Most people would probably say yes, but it’s still an interesting question.
Interesting. I also wonder why people justify past selves as an identity of us even though we have changed or grew as person while our past selves have already dead.
I don’t think you quite understand what I’m trying to say.
“Is the caterpillar dead because it became a butterfly?”
The caterpillar IS the butterfly. Perhaps not as you know it, but change is the universal constant,
How is this relevant? I’m talking from the first person perspective. Whether the caterpillar is dead or not depends on the person experiencing the consciousness of their own mind. From my perspectives, i think yes, the caterpillar is dead (it’s not really important because the caterpillar or butterfly isn’t conscious of itself).
I’m not trying to dehumanize other people but yes. That’s how i see it.
Thanks for your consideration. I’ll keep that in mind.
What do you mean by “evolve”? I think my past selves is dead because I can’t experience the exact same consciousness of the past selves of me again. Doesn’t that count as being “dead”?
First of all, sorry for bad english. I found this post from browsing google because of curiosity and suddenly stumbled upon this post. I think I might have the same question albeit with a bit difference in which i wonder if all knowledge is based on faith. I mean how can we so sure about our sense? Have you ever done empirical test to validate your senses? This become even more weird when we include subjective experience. I don’t know. Maybe it was just that I found people’s answers to these questions interesting.
