The mystery of pain and pleasure
michielper3y-10

It seems to me that good and bad are actually easy to define indeed. Minusdash gives a definition: Good is a state an entity strives to obtain (again). This is a functional definition and that should be enough. How states are physically represented in other beings is unknown and is in my opinion irrelevant.

Book Review: Being You by Anil Seth

As Seth justly states, immediately after the cloning, all the Eva's become different persons because they acquire different experiences. They do share a common history but they will soon start telling different stories about this history just as different people do.
