always look for stuff like this, to buttress my emotive needs for

No problem with faster than light, like tachyons.
The real nonsense is with "infinite speed", or instantaneousness, like
with physical non local action or interaction at a distance. No
problem with infinite and highly non local statistical interference
though, we got them already in arithmetic for the classical 1p views.
or an afterlife,
That is the subject of (machine's) theology (machine's one when we
assume computationalism).
I get that in the machine's classic theology, the religious attitude
becomes eventually equal to the scientific attitude, which is mainly
humility and modesty and extreme cautiousness in the communication.
The understanding that we can communicate only beliefs (assumption,
theories, always with an interrogation mark), and never knowledge as
such.
Note that this statement would be a blaspheme if presented as
scientifically justifiable, but the blaspheme is avoided as it is
presented as a theorem on arithmetically correct machine, and , with
mechanism, no correct machine can ever "scientifically" or rationally
justify the claim that she is a correct machine. She can only hope for
it.
It belongs to G* minus G, that is the true but non provable (by the
correct machine) propositions.
If you are interested in afterlife, study logic (or train yourself in
remembering dreams, or smoke salvia, (if legal in your country
'course), but I guess it is better to avoid all those who claim to
know the truth on the matter).
but o' course it usually don't work. My bad, but still damn
interesting.
