A couple of years ago, there was this information flowing around on the internet that “immortality is mathematically impossible”, and as an average consumer I just accepted it. Today, it randomly clicked me that I should ask why.
Q1: Is this claim even true? Because we already know that immortal jellyfishes exist and they can reverse aging (hopefully I’m not wrong here).
Q2: How does math play a role in this claim? (really curious about this one)
Lastly: I don’t know if i should flair this post as ‘Biology’ or ‘Math’?
In: Mathematics
> “immortality is mathematically impossible”,
This is a meaningless statement. There needs to be a clear explanation of what this means.
Math is a language so that statement is equivalent to saying” Immortality is impossible according to the English language”.
Basically, it sounds deep but it says nothing.
