Why is this such an issue with some people?

>>10151011

How can a string of consciousness appear suddenly in the cosmos and then disappear with a death of the unit?

>>10151011

its not for me, just found this graphic and wanted to make a stupid thread on sci

>>10151017
The question with the universe isn't "how can it", its "why wouldn't it"?

>inb4 """"philosophists"""" get triggered
consciousness are just chemicals arranged in a certain structure
nothing more to it

>>10151034
>chemicals
in your case they are toxic

Your existence is not a lucky coincidence or random at all. The world you're in cannot exist without you being there to observe it.

>>10151478
>"you"
>implying it doesn't simply need to be observed in general, regardless of who
>meaning some individual means fuck all when somebody else could be observing it anyway.

there is no proof the universe created its self. prove that.

Keep crying, fedoralord.

>>10151478
the unfortunate truth. it's the same when people get all excited about how perfect the laws of the universe and chemistry and physics and earth are so perfectly designed for humans but it's really the only possible reality if you're observing it. the unfortunate part is that it really doesn't give a fulfilling answer to the type of existential question OP was referring to.

Here come the clowns who will claim some sort of "purpose" or some fucking sophistry involved in a spirit or whatever with literally nothing to back it up except saying "if you can't see it, then you're dumb"

>>10151581

meaningless continental emotional drivel (there is no innate hypocrisy in what the mouse claims to be hypocritical).

Are we connected to something else that creates our consciousness?`because cloning ourself or transfering us into some data structure wouldn't result in 2 beings being conscious at the same time - doing the same things.
Maybe i'm just retarded, but many people claim shit like
>>10151034
at that we are all just a result of our chemicals. Might be true, but why are then Being 1 and Computer being 2, which share the same Mind, not the same Person?

Literally impossible for the Universe to exist out of mere "chance". Something can be so improbable that it will never ever happen even if given infinite time.

>>10152530
And that is, assuming, infinity is really even a thing.
