(MP)>>... because infinity is infinity.
But *your* infinity is just *really big*. There are only a finite number of atoms in a person and they have only a finite number of relations. So how can an exact copy require infinite resources?

Funny to mix up infinity with 'really big'. or (not?) 'really small'.
I consider infinity as devoid of quantitative restrictions, like a "zero", or whatever. Forever is (POOFF!!) instantaneously over. Infinite extension is no extension at all. Infinite time is 'just now(?) and it's over'.
Our mind is not capable of starting out with a quantized idea and then switch to infinity. It comes from religious-talk what we don't understand to begin with. So much about infinite wisdom, infinite love, eternity etc.
