The idea that our nervous system is the true "us" that pilots an inanimate and disposable body is the same dualism concept as a "soul". Except it lacks the divinity of religion or the accuracy of biology; worst of both worlds. Science-fiction-scripture.

They're still not fully-developed, it's marbles all the way up as depicted in this documentary from 1997

I'd argue I'm not immortal, but I did nothing to stop the last two murder attempts and I'm still here. I'm moderately lucky, but not immortal.
