Another life?

Hey flood, I have a quessin'. If we are made up of specific molecules that happened to come together to form who we are (I'm assuming that's the commonly accepted theory), do you think that after we die, if our molecular structure combines into the same make-up that we are, would we have a "second life" of sorts? Just a question that's been on my mind for a long time.

    Well, the thing is, you're not even really those molecules anymore. Not one molecule of what you were a few years ago is still part of you. In truth "you" are just the history that you activate in your memory at this very minute. That memory carries what it was told to, but that isn't exactly what you were. So really, the thing that was "you" died a while ago, and you're just remembering what that thing left behind. I can't help but grin when I think about that.
