Of course we do. Unless steps are taken, it’s usually rotting and decomposission. There is literally farms where we study what happens to us after death.

I’m talking about the nature of the soul and spirit.

But this comment chain is about the limits that physics imposes on technology.
There is no evidence for the existence of souls or spirits, so they don’t really factor into that discussion.

I see what you’re saying. But I also think the comment chain is speaking to the limits of our knowledge. The “limits that physics imposes on technology” is only based on what human beings have figured out through our limits of testing the rules of existence. What we can’t test, we have never been able to prove. And some things we may never be able to test or prove (such as Dark Matter). It’s easy to say there isn’t evidence of something, just as easy as it is to say that it’s because it’s past our limit/ability to test those things right now.

Absolutly, I’m not disputing that.
My point was going in the opposite direct. Some of the stuff we know we can be pretty sure about so I’d say it’s safe to assume that even an advanced alien technology couldn’t get around them. Like the speed of light, conservation of energy, entropy, etc.
Right, but when considering practical applications, like technology, it doesn’t really make a difference. If something exists but I don’t and can’t know that it exists, it might as well not exist. The result is the same.
