Good rundown on Frank Tipler HERE] in a 2008 review of his work by Martin Gardner.
Upshot: crackpot.
The Physics of Christianity by Frank Tipler, a mathematical physicist at Tulane University, is a sequel to The Physics of Immortality, a bestseller in Germany before it was published here in 1994 by Doubleday. In that book, Tipler argued that anyone who understands modern physics will be compelled to believe that at a far-off future date, which Tipler calls the Omega Point (borrowing the term from the Jesuit paleontologist Tielhard de Chardin), God will resurrect every person who lived, as well as every person who could have lived! Our brains will be preserved as computer simulations and given new spiritual bodies to live happily forever in the paradise described in the New Testament.
In his new book, published in 2007 by Doubleday, Tipler goes far beyond his previous one. ...
I got another one:
Delusional :sick:

The real mystery for me is how people can find comfort in such contrived nonsense.
A popular saying runs thus: Ignorance is bliss.
Actually, the expression is "where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise." Which kind of reminds me of this conversation, come to think of it. ;)
If one wishes to actually obtain veridical understanding into the most crucial fields of sapient knowledge, then I have made it as easy as possible for one to do so via my own writings. My below articles explain to people (1) theological ethics and soteriology in a comprehensive and logically-coherent manner; (2) how the known laws of physics prove God's existence while demonstrating the exacting and extensive consilience of the New Testament with said physical laws; (3) the nature of God in light of said physical laws; (4) the End Time, the Tribulation, the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, the foundation of Heaven on Earth, and the universal resurrection of the dead in light of said physical laws; and (5) the End Time in light of the history of the globalist oligarchy's self-termed New World Order world government and world religion agenda.
And yet you can't answer a relatively simple question, which I have asked twice. Hmmm....
I wrote a free book to answer everyone's questions regarding this most important of question. Do you mean this question by you: "Seriously, what would an 'immortal superintelligent human-mind computer' look like in an equation? Where does that even come from? Can you just briefly give me the logic behind it, in words rather than mathematics?"
As far as I am aware, you did not ask that question twice. Further, you are acting irrationally here, since you are complaining that I have not answered something which of course I have answered. You act as if my "Physics of God" article is possessed by demons and that your soul will be overtaken if you so much as peek within it. It is not my fault if you are a superstitious person who is figuratively afraid of their own shadow. What am I to do, treat you as some mangy mutt and rub your nose in your own ignorant droppings, while yelling "Bad boy!"? It's not up to me to force you into enlightenment. If one wishes to remain in ignorance, then no force can be applied to correct that.
Again, for the details of this mathematical theorem, see Sec. 3: "Physics of the Omega Point Cosmology", Subsec. 3.1: "The Omega Point", pp. 12-19 of my aforecited article "The Physics of God and the Quantum Gravity Theory of Everything".
