Mortalism requires supernatural properties of matter argument
Mortalism requires supernatural properties of matter to be a coherent belief system. Mortalism is the belief that identical structure and functioning of matter will not produce the same ixperiencitness. Usually it is not not stated this way. It is usually stated as: when a person dies they will never experience conscious existence again. For this to be the case it requires matter to have properties that science has not shown it to have. This means that matter must have some supernatural properties that scientists can not experimentally see, understand, or predict. In science, technology, and experiments matter is replaceable with other matter that will produce the same desired properties. But mortalism predicts that matter has some special property that is carried though time in the same body that does not exist in an identical body made of different matter. Mortalism even suggests that when the original body dies that this something that is in the original is lost upon death. It sounds like a soul or spirit which are supernatural. But scientific mortalism usually denies the existence of supernatural concepts that are used by other belief systems to support theories of immortality. Supernatural mortalism is the belief system that there are supernatural properties of a consciousness and a person that can not be explained by ways of materialistic science. These supernatural properties of a person die along with the person's body. In the more technological terms that awaretheory uses a different physipaths or physapaths never map to the same ixperiencitness or ixpepath. This means that no matter how many identical physapaths are created they will not make the same ixperiencitness.
