(It's dubious, since our reality/nature did succeed to make it; at the very least for me). But if reality as it isn doesn't give us access to that (whatever we do, forever, because it is impossible like going faster than the speed of light under relativity, or going before the big bang as the time is beginning with it... and that indeed assumes a theory like computationalism is false), then it is a problem even phisophisically (that is if you still want to follow logic and still want what you're saying to be meaningfull) > > > The no clone theorem refers to physical copying,
I know. so it isn't relevant if consciousness is due to something else, like an immaterial soul. It is if perfect physical copying is not enough because it misses something.
