In a universe where efverythingf is forever, energy and matter just take new forms never truly destroyed…
Why the fuck is conciousness the exception
Edit: That’s a serious question, and the only answer I can think of is “It isn’t, we just don’t know how to find conciousness when it leaves the body. Much as ancient main did not know of radiation nor how to find it, so he believed radioactive springs were cursed or blessed.”
You have to make a lot of assumptions for any of that to be true.
Your consciousness is the sum of electrical signals and stored data. The same way that if you throw a computer into a fire the data is gone forever.
The energy in your body is what continues on forever, not the data.
There is no law of conservation of data. That is not a thing
I see a large trend of people just completely rejecting reality for fantasies.
I would love it if my consciousness continued on forever, but that is not the truth. There is zero evidence of this. When you dye your body will rot and the energy will be returned to the earth. I think that is more beautiful
The human soul cannot be measured even in a human body… So why do you think it exists? You sound like someone who completely rejects science in favor of fairy tales that make them more able to go to sleep at night.
Reality is harsh and cruel. Your ‘soul’ is just your consciousness, it disappears the second there is no energy to keep your brain alive. The second you die you are gone forever, the only thing that remains is your memory until those people die. Nature does not care about you, you have the same worth as a cockroach.
All of these religious fairy tales are there to exploit your fear of death. They give you a fairy tale saying that death isn’t the end so you feel better about life. All you have to do is follow their rules 😂
You do know we can’t measure consciousness either right? But we still know it happens, it’s the only thing we can know for sure happens because we’re all experiencing it right now.
We still don’t know a lot about how the brain works, and again, it’s pretty weird that this is universe that recycles everything except consciousness: Matter and energy cannot be destroyed, they only change form.
Ever look into NDEs? Weird stuff, they thought it was just oxygen deprived hallucinations, but then they keep finding very specific and powerful brain activity after the patient is declared dead that suggests something is going on in a big way. Something much bigger than neurons randomly firing in an attempt to reignite the brain, the brain’s ignited like never before despite the fact that it should be dead. They also keep finding that Near Death Experiences are so damn universal that for the weird magic sounding stuff to be a hoax, then hundreds of thousands of people would have to have been in on it since the dawn of man.
Never assume that science knows everything. Not because “Religion has all the answers”, but because science is not a religion, it’s not a big book that you can just find answers in. It’s an on-going process of questioning everything and then going “That’s funny, that shouldn’t be happening.” right before learning about a new set of questions to ask.
I wish so hard that I could believe. Just lie to myself forever, When you die it’s not like you find out…
Your lizard brain is wired to avoid death, but non-existence shouldn’t be scary. You’ve already done it for possibly an infinite amount of time.

There is no glory or beauty in Oblivion, what you describe is not a fade to black, but a fade to invisible.
Additionally your idea assumes that what makes me think and feel is the accumulation of data by itself.
No matter how smart a computer gets, it’s not going to start thinking for itself. The rise of AI Hallucination has proved that.
General AI will not be found until we can see the human soul in a microscope.

It’s actually really beautiful.
