Resurrection, that is, resurrection from death, is not uncommon in myths and stories. For example, Nezha, who scraped the bones back to his father and returned his flesh to his mother, was resurrected by the real Taiyi with lotus flowers and jade roots. It has never appeared that those resurrection stories recorded in unofficial folk histories and anecdotes are 100% fabricated, or people were mistaken for dead before they died, and then this person "lived" and was killed. Others thought it was a miracle of resurrection from the dead.

However, Zhang Wei has really mastered the means of "resurrection" now.

This is the spiritual immortality technology that Zhang Wei has been researching.

At the beginning of the establishment of the future technology company, Zhang Wei formulated an ambitious "immortality plan" and determined two paths to immortality: physical immortality technology and spiritual immortality technology.

Now, nearly 90 years later, major breakthroughs have been made in both technologies.

In terms of physical immortality technology, Zhang Wei's third-generation genetic evolution fluid can extend the lifespan of human beings to 3075 years old. This is a number that makes everyone excited, but there is still a long way to go before immortality.

The spiritual immortality technology has been completely solved by the research team led by Zhang Wei.

At the beginning, Zhang Wei believed that as long as human memory, emotion, and thinking are all digitized, people can achieve spiritual immortality. He has been conducting research in this way. In 2037, when he and immigrants When he went to the Alpha Centauri galaxy, he researched the technology of memory digitization on the way. However, in the next so many years, this technology has not made a breakthrough until the great inventor system rewarded him with dark matter and With regard to the knowledge about dark energy, he discovered the soul in his later research, and gradually discovered the mysteries of emotion and thinking. It turns out that these two things are related to the soul. This is actually quite normal. The human body is just a pile of chemical substances. If it is not influenced by the soul, how can it produce delicate emotions and almost unlimited imagination and thinking.

After identifying the breakthrough, the research work went smoothly unexpectedly. Not long ago, the research team led by Zhang Wei successfully read out the memory, emotion, and thinking of an experimental subject in the laboratory, transformed them into data, and stored them. In the computer, these data are then imported into a human body bred by genetic technology, and the experiment of spiritual immortality is completed.

From then on, anyone can resurrect after death as long as they make a backup of their memories, emotions, and thoughts and store them in a safe place.

However, although this technology is very powerful, the controversy it has received is also extremely huge.

The first controversy is: after being resurrected in this way, is a person still the same person?

This is actually the "Ship of Theseus", one of the top ten philosophical problems in the world.

The Ship of Theseus is one of the oldest thought experiments. The earliest record comes from Plutarch. It describes a ship that can survive at sea for hundreds of years, thanks to constant repairs and replacement parts. As soon as a board rots, it is replaced, and so on, until all the functional parts are no longer the original ones. The question is, is the resulting ship the same original Ship of Theseus, or a completely different ship? If it wasn't the original ship, at what point did it cease to be the original ship say?

By analogy, if the ship of Theseus is replaced by a human, is he still the same person after being resurrected with spiritual immortality technology? Is he qualified to inherit all properties such as ontology's property, family, social relations, etc.? Can the family and friends of the main body recognize this replica? Legally, are the replica and the original the same person?

The second controversy is: as long as you make a backup, you can create a copy, or even countless copies. If the main body is still alive,

How should the wife and children of the main body distinguish and deal with the replica and the main body? Just imagine, when a woman suddenly has one or even N more husbands, she will definitely collapse; and when a person suddenly has one or even N more fathers, she will definitely be quite speechless.

These two controversies have triggered a wide range of discussions in the Imperial Academy of Sciences, and also caused scientists to hold different attitudes towards spiritual immortality technology.

Some people think that if this technology spreads out, there will definitely be big troubles. For example, there will be a confrontation between the main body and the replica, or for example, immortality will make human beings lose their motivation. Therefore, this technology must be locked in In the laboratory, the application is not promoted.

Some people think that this technology can be promoted, but the corresponding laws and regulations must be introduced to strictly regulate the use.

Generally speaking, the majority of people support the second point of view, because eternal life is the ultimate pursuit of human beings since ancient times. I can't help but God! Throughout the ages, human beings have been like this. In order to realize his dream of immortality, Qin Shihuang first sent thousands of boys and girls to the East China Sea to seek immortality medicine for him, but failed. The elixir of immortality finally ended in failure; Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent people to build a 30-foot-high copper dew plate with a circumference of 1.7 Zhang dew. It is possible to achieve human longevity, but it ended in failure; the Egyptian pharaoh even contributed his own body as a mummy. The body is immortal and the soul will return one day. Of course, he also failed. People nowadays are no exception, they are also greedy for life and afraid of death, since they have the opportunity of eternal life, how can they be willing to miss it?

After a heated debate, Zhang Wei made a final decision and supported the second point of view. He decided to restrict the promotion of spiritual immortality technology, and formulated a law to regulate the application of this technology. For example, this technology must be firmly controlled in the In the hands of imperial officials, only imperial officials can help someone copy his memory, emotion, and thinking. The backup of these data must also be controlled by imperial officials. It is strictly forbidden for any private organization to intervene in this field; After that, the imperial officials can use the data backup to "resurrect" this person, and if an unexpected situation occurs, and this person is not dead, then the replica must be destroyed humanely; When the mind is backed up, the family must have the right to know, and when he is "resurrected", the family must also be clearly informed...
