your body is no more you than your clothes or your car
when your neural tissue and the rest of the body is destroyed, that's like wrecking your car or burning your clothes

I understand the understanding you've gleaned based on studying appearances, but from where do you do derive the 'no more?' Have you heard of the problem of induction (as if you've even got that far, you're just begging the question).

>I understand the understanding you've gleaned based on studying appearances
literally the diametric opposite of how I've ascertained the truth, and how anyone can possibly do the same
>from where do you do derive the 'no more?'
it's the truth, I derive it from the fact that it's true
you are not your body
>Have you heard of the problem of induction
I'm more knowledgeable about metaphysics than you likely will ever become
>you're just begging the question
completely false, I'm not doing anything of the sort at all
you should learn what that actually means (hint: it implies circular reasoning, which is not what I'm doing at all)

It does not imply circular reasoning, the two fallacies are not identical. Although:
>it's the truth, I derive it from the fact that it's true

And actually support your statements for once, don't just state it as a matter of fact; if you did, we would not run into these accusations of 'begging the question.' (e.g., 'your brain chemistry ends and you cool down then rot;' unless you aren't implying that this is the end of consciousness, in which case I take my leave)

>Do you think there is some kind of reincarnation?
you can embody your cognition in an infinite variety of forms, so yes, you can 'reincarnate' if you want to
>I think you get reincarnated
you don't 'get reincarnated' as in that it's something that happens to you while you're a passive object
you are the subject, a volitional and conscious being, you choose to incarnate in any way you like

>It does not imply circular reasoning, the two fallacies are not identical.
wrong
learn some basic logic before embarrassing yourself further
'begging the question' literally refers precisely to circular reasoning
>if you did, we would not run into these accusations of 'begging the question.'
people like you would accuse others of logical fallacies they don't even remotely understand regardless, so that's more nonsense
>your brain chemistry ends and you cool down then rot
your brain chemistry ends, but not you
you don't cool down and rot, that's something your body does
