Is There Life After Death - Using Physics

[Ronald Zeeman]

So if absolute length does not exist where does that leave us

no pun intended

time & speed of light intertwined? Okay then that puts me back to how does our existence get plotted by our minds? Is not there a conflict in there?

This is making me think about Ricardo Manzitti’s book, The Spread Mind,Why Consciousness and the World are One.

JUST think how do you measure the measuring stick, without knowing the length of the measuring stick. that's the paradox, incidentally also explains irrational numbers like Pi.

some question are just to philosophical for me too answer with any0 authority, my only skill is the ability to think visually, quantum mechanics, general relativity , no issue for me.

Remember different wavelengths of light should travel at the same speed. Quasars are 14 billion light years away, lots of opportunity for differences to be measured.

Maybe light is not the only measuring stick?

For me, it is a simple matter of Biology. You are your brain, all of you, the memories, the emotions, your behavior, your senses. Once you die and your brains leak out, that is it, finished and unrecoverable.

I hold as my basis that the cosmos is materialistic and natural and all our mental gymnastics cannot change that.

I agree with this.

Furthermore, you don't need to die physically, to die. From my point of view, if you have an accident which makes you loose large part of your memories, or affect severely your behavior (like Phineas Gage), "you" are gone.
