Yes, If the original isn't destroyed, I agree that most likely, Earth would continue to be seen by the 'master' or original consciousness, from where the two copies are copied from. If the original person is deconstructed or destroyed in a process by a machine, and the information is beamed to two reconstruction machines on both Venus and Mars, there would be two people that look and probably act like the original. Both people could be seen as copies, rather than either one being an original or a copy. Would this mean that the original person is effectively dead? So in this case I could not reassure the original person that he/she would be conscious of anything after the deconstruction-beaming and double-reconstruction on the two planets. Or would the consciousness (the "me-ness" of the original) be transferred to both of the copies or just one? If just one, I guess there would be a probability of 50% of seeing Mars or Venus. So in this case I could reassure the original person on Earth that he/she will see either one of the two planets. It would be hard to see how the "me-ness" of the original could be transferred to both (as that "me-ness" would see both planets at the same time), unless both are entangled, where the "me-ness" of the original is held on a conscious level in one copy, but held in the other at an unconscious level. In this case, the one that holds the consciousness of the original in the subconscious/unconscious level, would be a different person on a conscious level, unless the subconscious of the original is brought forth at the conscious level?

I guess that they'll be a 50% chance of either seeing Mars or Venus, I wouldn't see two places at the same time. They would still be one "me" (from a consciousness perspective as I'd only be conscious through the eyes of either one or the other, not both), where the other can be seen in a similar way as an identical twin, but with the same memories and thought processes. They could be an argument between the two as to which one was the original person.

I have question which could be difficult to answer I believe it is about consciousness This is it What if you were beamed (then two being exactly you) to two planets e.g. mars and Venus what planet would you see and why?

I wanted to ask this question and i have problems finding infomation and due to the fact there are very helpful people on this site i give it a shot. I know that bacteria can swap genetic material and created a merged bacteria of some sort but my question is it possible for two virues to swap genetic material,if so how and what would be the outcome?

the education sytem is deteriorating i believe we are made dumber by the use of PCs and calculators and that lead to machines doing all our work and thinking. heres and article from the BBC that may interest you: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/manchester/7828121.stm

yeah i would say that humans have the capability to de-evolve and i like the idea that some animals are much smarter or seem smarter then us.

can anyone explain what 'primal theory' is. I know theres was a book on it.

thats a good joke that avatar is from a film called 'the fly' it about genetic manipulation

'Well obviously your brain is messed up. Go to a doctor.' Sisyphus oh thanks lol DrP could you add any more tricks if you know any

well i did it and i came up with a carrot Merged post follows: Consecutive posts mergedok that was weird i did it and i though of a carrot i did not see that spoiler at the bottom and when i did i highlighted it and it was carrot i am quit freaked out.good on you DrP

Did anyone watch the 'Derren Brown mind reader' it was very interesting. Well some parts are hard to explain where he made the table float with no strings. He is very interesting person.

well here are some links if your interested: http://benjaminfranklinhouse.org/site/sections/education/Kids/bones/Default.html http://www.infowars.com/articles/occult/hellfire.htm with a small video http://www.theforbiddenknowledge.com/hardtruth/ten_bodies.htm

I have research a lot of evidence to suggest that Ben Franklin was involved in illegal anatomy. This evidence suggest that the body’s were found in his home were 4 adults and 6 children all with saw marks and drills. This was because that grave digging and stealing body came illegal and murder was an option for many anatomists. what do you think?

This is a very interesting article from the BBC news: The 'first true scientist' By Professor Jim Al-Khalili University of Surrey An artist's impression of al-Hassan Ibn al-Haytham Isaac Newton is, as most will agree, the greatest physicist of all time. At the very least, he is the undisputed father of modern optics,* or so we are told at school where our textbooks abound with his famous experiments with lenses and prisms, his study of the nature of light and its reflection, and the refraction and decomposition of light into the colours of the rainbow. Yet, the truth is rather greyer; and I feel it important to point out that, certainly in the field of optics, Newton himself stood on the shoulders of a giant who lived 700 years earlier. For, without doubt, another great physicist, who is worthy of ranking up alongside Newton, is a scientist born in AD 965 in what is now Iraq who went by the name of al-Hassan Ibn al-Haytham. Most people in the West will never have even heard of him. As a physicist myself, I am quite in awe of this man's contribution to my field, but I was fortunate enough to have recently been given the opportunity to dig a little into his life and work through my recent filming of a three-part BBC Four series on medieval Islamic scientists.

this is very interesting i may make you think twice before peeling tape again: http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn15016-humble-sticky-tape-emits-powerful-xrays.html

sorry for my puncation i have deslexyia

This would be very good i hope it goes foward i ain't a big fan of virus but there a amazing on a biological scale here is an article on forced evolution: http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2008-11/ru-fec111008.php

Hey have you read this article from new scientist this sound typical of the modern man: http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn16091-were-neanderthals-stoned-to-death-by-modern-humans.html

ah there is such a thing called global warming but not in a sense that humans see it and i don't beleive the earth is flat that is rubbish ok lets say that global warming is nothing to do with sun then why are other planets in are solar system heating up does this explain that the sun is going into one of it natural cycle. But i would like to thank you all for the infomation i will compile a conclusion when i have read them.
