Comment on Does Consciousness Disappear in Dreamless Sleep?
pjhenry1216@kbin.social 1 year agoyou’re looking for an absolute point,
Which is the crux of this whole conversation. We don't have an actual definition of death. It's all relative and changing over time.

What surprises me, is you wouldn’t accept the relative/changing definition as a valid definition itself.
Guess that could be an interesting conversation, potentially shedding some light on different worldviews… but I don’t really know where to begin. Curious.

I refer you back to my original comment involving the impact of not having a good definition of death and what that causes.
Your definition does not clarify any of the resulting problems arising from trying to define all the other concepts.
It's a good definition for some scenarios, but not at all or in any way, this one.
