you're going to be the next person that gets born after you die.

why not? That person HAS to have a being, like you do and you had when you were born, it might as well be you, that next person.

As long as we keep the species going, we never die.

I don't actually think this but i do think it's plausible. because why shouldn't it be you?

I just hope i'm not black or a woman. God help me if im a black woman. I'm not saying it's better, just more lucky. I basically won the lottery this time, Canada, not a bastard child, parents love me, middle class, male, white with some native american, not gay, know about science

impossible odds, yet i'm still depressed and need anxiety meds

yea, and who knows, that the next birth doesn't have to be human. For all who knows, you could be born on another planet, or some other place in the universe. It might be better, it might be worse, who knows.

Just because the material that made up your brain remains doesn't make you immortal. You would be no more immortal than this desk that I spill seaman on a nightly basis, whose atoms I am sure have some probability of belonging to your great great great great great great grandmother.

I don't see how >>1515253 did anything to break apart OP's statement. He is grateful not to be in that majority of world population. I am too. So...
