Assimilation arguments

Assimilation arguments are arguments based on assimilation experiments that show that the assimilation of matter within a consciousness producing system is not based on a supernatural process that limits a particular ixperiencitness being only produced by one body. To distinguish the natural process from the supernatural process we can the supernatural process assimilation or supernatural assimilation.

The human body assimilates new matter into it all the time and it appears to most people that this process alone does not change the ixperiencitness produced by the body. For most scientists the evidence is that for long periods of time during a life time the ixperiencitness does not change, but during this period of time the consciousness, structure and functioning of the matter, most if not all of the matter itself, within the body, does get replaced by new matter. Some theories predict that the ixperiencitness is maintained by the supernatural process of assimilation. Assimilation keeps any other identical physapath from producing the same ixpepath by making assimilation If the process of assimilation does not occur, like after death, then a restored person will not have the same ixperiencitness.

The process of assimilation can be given a number of different properties depending on the theory

One problem with supernatural assimilation is there is no way to test it. We can test the natural process of assimilation which is a process of maintaining the assimilation scaffolding
