I salute you, your emptiness

Ta-Wan

Is it intuitive that when something is consumed by a black hole that the black hole is unchanged and the thing consumed is gone forever?

Yes? No?

Well, my intuition says no and science says no also. In fact, the black hole is now that fraction larger and the information of the consumed now exists as part of the outer horizon of the black hole.

And so it is with every person. They are not a collection of self and reason, but emptiness surrounded by an outer shell giving off information of what they have absorbed.
