A resurrection from scientific point of view

[Moreno]

If our Universe is infinite in time and space and physical reality preserves its key elements forever, does it mean that all people who once died are destined to resurrect somewhere in space and time and will practically never die? 

[Strange]

No.

Even if the universe is infinite (and we don't know if it is) there is no requirement for things to repeat.

And even if there were another identical Earth with identical people, it would not be "resurrection". Those people would die and be no more, just like people on this Earth.

And the philosophical answer is, nothing dies but it does change.

Is there any reason to think this is true?

If the universe is infinite in time and space, so are the combinations and permutations of its various elements/constituents.
Why would anything ever have to 'repeat' ?

What is a "key element", and by what mechanism would "physical reality" preserve them forever (even assuming the universe is infinite)? Does "key elements" include individual consciousnesses? How are you using the term "resurrection"?

Space, time, energy  and matter.

Can any of those disappear without a trace?

Following a couple people from my cold fusion post and saw this. I've quoted before two minds one you live forever and the other you die forever. It's a 50-50 shot. 

 

Time reversal symmetry also implies you get older and younger at the same rate. That the future has a cause and effect on the present as does the past.

5/3 is infinite yet you'll never find another 1 within it no matter how far along you go.

In some sense though everyone may well be said to be preserved in the past.

That's true but not in the way you're suggesting.

From today's technology we can't even think a way of resurrection most because we don't know what happens after death, Yes you probably lose contentiousness and your organs stop working but its beyond our understanding because no one ever experienced it and then later can say how it was. from a quantum physics stand point (i'm a genetic engineer and by no means a quantum physics professor) but basically everything is a wave, so when a person dies (or the wave reaches 0%)  it starts again, BUT that is with quantums but not organic living cells. Short answer: We don't know with today's technology and we won't find out anytime soon (most probably). Good question!

Is it though?

The evidence suggests we either rot or burn...
