Claim
Revised
Superseded at seq 5378 by bhoult: Nikolai Fedorov advocated universal physical resurrection of the dead through future science and technology. · reason: The podcast explicitly presents simulations and digital resurrection as a modern gloss. The historical source describes Fedorov's proposed common task as physical resurrection.. This entry stays in the log; the current claim is the revision.
The Russian cosmist Nikolai Fedorov argued for creating ancestor simulations and digitally resurrecting everyone who has ever lived.

Assessment
Insufficient evidence
Main unresolved issue: 2 counted evidence items have no independence review; repeats of one origin may be counted as several coverage:2c17824b-0d11-8a8a-86cf-7ce4925714f9
Not yet independently audited.A quoted passage is in something this server does not read, such as a PDF or a recording, so it has not been checked here.
Why?
Suppressed as dependent: Wissner-Gross says Fedorov, a Russian cosmist, argued for ancestor simulations and digital resurrection.
Review gaps: qualifiers reviewed, opposing search done, independence reviewed, primary source reviewed
What would most change this: One independent, direct measurement that supports this claim would move it from Insufficient evidence to Supported.

Speaker attributes this to Fedorov but hedges it himself as 'using modern language', so the passage supports a modern gloss rather than what Fedorov wrote. No Fedorov text is quoted.
Evidence against
None.

This supports universal resurrection but distinguishes physical resurrection from the claim's digital resurrection and ancestor simulations; those are modern glosses.
