Geoff Smith argues
: For example... say in a galaxy far, far away there is a planet that
: developed life exactly like ours. On this planet, by pure coincidence,
: there just happens to be a human being *exactly* like you,
: sub-atomic-particle by sub-atomic-particle. Is this person you?
: I would say not, even though he has exactly the same structure as you.
I don't ordinarily bother with debates like this (I'm an operationalist),
but let me just toss in a monkeywrench -- er, I mean a few words:
PAULI EXCLUSION PRINCIPLE!
Thank you.
