Many of us at some time have had the same questions. You are right that we don't know what happens after death, that will be for us to see. No one has been brought back from being preserved with Cryonics. People that may be healed in the future by advanced medicine, from what would now kill them, just as we can heal many who would have died in the past--are not seen as 'all the way dead', or 'information dead'. They are preserved, if cryonics does not someday work, then they will be considered dead. So if cryonics does not work, then it does not matter to the person. If cryonics does work, they can decide how well it worked, or do more good per their religious or moral beliefs, or their own life outlook--or they can choose to not continue living (just as those alive now, can). If there is reincarnation, then the higher power that is reincarnating, may want you to do more work, or live longer before you are brought to live with that higher power, in that case cryonics would work if that higher power so wished. Anyway good luck with your searching, hope you have a good feeling about your choices in life :-) Shannon Vyff From: Harmony <> Subject: frozen souls? Dear Members, I've written here already, though i still have questions and fears about cryonics..... maybe some members had this question in the past, but i wasn't the memeber in that time so i take this question now.... so, when a people decide to go to cryonics and be frozen, he/she will be dead in the tube, right? But, if they will be dead, how it is possible to preserve the soul inside their body? i mean, maybe body can survive the freezing, but my question is that the person who had been frozen will be the same person or alike a robot? I know it sounds strange, and scary, but it is an important question i think.... if you beleieve in that you can reincarnate after your death, how is it possible to get back the same soul in the same body, becouse it is possible that your soul had been reincarnated in another body? o course we cannot know, horeality, but we never could know what is after death..... and another question: have been ever woken up any cryonics memeber from death from freeze? I mean, that it is okey that you freezeing people, but any of them are among us today in live? Sorry for my english... so these questions are very heavy i think..... can anyone answer for these?
