If the universe con be understood as a process, a program, then what is lost,
to us forever, may over the duration of our species, found again. It's
speculation but speculation with a direction, a goal. It was uncovered so to
speak, mechanism-wise, by a team led by Andrew Strominger. If Professor
Strominger calls BS, this is fine. Few scientists have any control over the
results of their work, here as well.

Sean Carroll's views of such claims is: No fricking
way!https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/guest-blog/physics-and-the-immortality-of-the-soul/
Dr. Carroll may have been wrong on this, if one ponders that our descendants
who will thinkably have more time and resources to play with.

How confident of this is this American serf? Well, sometimes it works, and
other times I poop out. Today is an up day for the lad. I expect that
eventually, things will after a fashion work out, technologically,
expectation-wise.
So, like the ancient bumper sticker went, WWHD? What Would Jesus Do, I ask
instead, HWJDI? How would Jesus do it?

Steven Weinberg is no more, since recently. I did appreciate very much his
books on quantum mechanics, and also his introduction to quantum field theory.
I have mentioned more than once his work showing that if you delinearise a
little bit quantum mechanics, not only you cannot make the parallel
worlds/histories disappearing, but somehow, it makes possible to visit those
parallel worlds, or, to use an image by Weinberg, to call your doppelgänger
with a phone.
This provides a quantum and dual way to refute John Clark argument against the
first person indeterminacy in arithmetic. John argue dans le parallel histories
in arithmetic allows in principle the doppelgänger to meet, so that it is
different from the indeterminacy on the superposition. But the point is that
the indeterminacy calculus cannot change based on such counterfactual, unless
adding magic to Mechanism, but then Mechanism is false by definition. A dual
counterexample based on this work by Weinberg is that delineairsing a little
bit the Schroedinger equation, in such a way that the indeterminacy remains
unchanged, makes the doppelgänger accessible, like with the classical
duplication, and yet does not change the calculus of indeterminacy different,
illustrating once again you need to add magic to Mechanism to avoid, like in
quantum mechanics, the first person indeterminacy.
A more serious difficulty is to make people understand the original paper of
Turing, Church, Post, which shows (along with Gödel) that the arithmetical
reality is (more than) Turing complete. This follows from understanding
arithmetic, or, at a more formal level, by understanding that all models of
arithmetic have the same initials segment in which addition and multiplication
stay Turing emulable (which is not the case in the whole non standard models.
this requires a bit of mathematical logic, which is not well taught, when
taught at all.
Once you grasp this, even without Mechanism, you can understand that the burden
of the proof is in the hand of those who add some more axioms to arithmetic,
like the existence of some "primitive matter" which have to justify its role in
consciousness selection from arithmetic. In deductive theology, it is better to
not add any ontological commitment before a reason is provided to it. Up to
now, observation confirms mechanism. If they was one fact in favour of non
mechanism, or in favour of something more than numbers, I would welcome it, but
there are none, as far as I know. On the contrary, Everett QM confirms all
prediction of classical Digital Mechanism, and explains furthermore the qualia
and consciousness, as notion of knowledge imposed through self-reference and
incompleteness.
