He lifts the receiver, pushes a button or something, and he is transported, mind and body to the place where his friend is at the other end of the telephone line. I asked myself: Could this ever really be??? And I still wonder :-)<br /><br />Don't tell me that kids can't be introduced to philosophical questions well before college.

Sounds good to me!<br /><br />Feser, you should do an article on whether or not it would be moral to use a teleportation device. You know, like if all your molecules were re-produced somewhere else, while your original molecules fall apart. Assuming your soul appeared in this recreated you, wouldn't teleporting be a sort of suicide?zmikecubernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954608646904080796.post-44681001606393623062013-12-10T07:15:47.015-08:002013-12-10T07:15:47.015-08:00Completely off topic but the irony of this delicio...Completely off topic but the irony of this delicious:<br /><br />http://www.salisburyreview.com/Theodore_Dalrymple/stamp.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954608646904080796.post-32389757245528561432013-12-09T23:15:06.378-08:002013-12-09T23:15:06.378-08:00Ok, thanks for the responseOk, thanks for the responseTimotheoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09848027239405239382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954608646904080796.post-49722778265240494502013-12-09T22:57:59.131-08:002013-12-09T22:57:59.131-08:00Hello Timotheos, a volume containing the conferenc...Hello Timotheos, a volume containing the conference papers is planned.
