命运号角

Cryonicist response: Yeah, we’re not sure about that either. Fingers crossed though.
冷冻专家表示他们也不确定，但愿吧。

Most cryonicists have a hunch that you can survive cryopreservation intact (cryonicist Eliezer Yudkowsky argues that “successful cryonics preserves anything about you that is preserved by going to sleep at night and waking up the next morning”) but they also admit that this is yet another variable they’re not sure about. You might even want to consider this a fifth “If” to add onto our list: If what seems to be a revived me is actually me…
大多数冷冻专家预言可以完整保存身体（但是冷冻专家Eliezer Yudkowsky说：“只有睡觉能达到这水平”），但是他们也承认这是一个变量，更不想把这条当作第五大条件：复活后的我真的是我。

Skeptic Type 5: The person who, regardless of whether cryonics can work or not, thinks it’s a bad thing
怀疑5：不管人体冷冻法能否成功，都认为它不该存在

There are lots of these people. A handful of examples:
这样的人有很多。举一些例子：

Argument: Cryonics is icky.
争论：人体冷冻法令人作呕。
Typical cryonicist response: Yup, but less icky than decaying underground.
回应：是的但没地底腐烂恶心。

Argument: Cryonics is creepy and unnatural.
争论：人体冷冻法恐怖，不顺应天理

Typical cryonicist response: People said the same thing about the first organ transplants.
回应：人们对第一例器官移植也是这样说的。
