So the end product reflects back on something that can’t reflect forward.
So because you don't understand how consciousness could arise from matter alone, you've decided that it can't be possible. How arrogant is that, to think that your imagination alone dictates how the world operates.
Quote:consciousness to consciousness, consciousness to nonconscious makes sense. nonconscious to consciousness is nonsense. about time you gave the 'mind' it's due. after all, it's order of magnitude capabilities over matter is infinity.
Yet another bland assertion that matter can't be more than the sum of its parts. Allow me to introduce you- yet again, because you keep ignoring these points like a fucking moron whenever I bring them up- to our friend mechanics and electrical engineering, in which the whole is definitively more than the sum of its parts. And don't think I didn't notice the argument from personal incredulity in just calling a matter-based mind "nonsense." Who the hell cares what you think is nonsense? You have no education or basis to go on, here.
