**Evidence / Concept Status:** Corpus conceptual distinction
## Definition
**Salvific Continuity vs Technological Continuity** distinguishes religious claims about salvation, soul, resurrection, liberation, or reincarnation from engineered preservation, reconstruction, migration, and hosting.
## Continuity Significance
It allows civil systems to honor technological instructions without pretending to implement or disprove a religious afterlife.
## Existing Architecture / Evidence
Major religions and transhumanist systems answer different questions about what persists and by what authority.
## Evidentiary Boundary / Red-Team Note
The state should practice eschatological neutrality rather than adjudicate which account is metaphysically true.
