From his perspective his life ends. A new clone with his memories that thinks it's him is created. But the original Kirk stopped his conciousness and is truly dead. If people knew it worked like that nobodycwoule ever step into a teleporter Every time you go to sleep your memories are scrambled and neurons rewritten, and various cells are deleted and replaces You're still yourself It's like someone above talking about the ship of Theseus. Or more simply, say i have a broom. The handle breaks one day so I replace it. Eventually the brush breaks, I replace it. Sometime later, the handle breaks again and I replace it. Now I have a broom that has no original parts or parts that interacted with the original, is it the same broom? Whether you think it is or isn't is besides the point though, in reality it's irrelevant. Same as the fantheory over Kirk's teleport killing him. ... Copied to Clipboard! |
