Well, well also a car can be idle. Yes, a car can be idle. So can a lot of things. The brain isn't one of them.

Actually i know very well what is the correct meaning of the word fact.
The question related instead to what fact are you talking about.

So if the brain can not be idle then it is irrelevant to have the I or consciousness as the brain can do without the I that start the thinking.
That is very interesting Ton.
I must nominated you for the next Nobel prize for discovering how the intellect works.

We have never mated. This is how rumours start.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

You will have to excuse me mate but now that you have said that the brain can do without the I i don't really know what to do with this I.
Shell i throw this I in the garbage and tell him to disappear for ever from my life or what.
Please Ton help me, i am really desperate.

You know Stim that i had an uncle that was an undertaker.
But he like you wouldn't give me the evidence whether the soul goes to the dogs.
I know that you guys have the real evidence.
Who else if not an undertaker would have the evidence otherwise?
Please Stim don't do like my uncle.
Help the poor Rik.
Even if we are not mates we are still friends, don't we?

I cannot help you; you are way beyond helping. You ask me for evidence of something I am not claiming yet cannot or will not provide evidence for most of your claims. Further, you launch personal broadsides at anyone who dares to examine what little you do provide, expecting us simply to accept it without question. You have proven yourself to be intellectually dishonest time and time again. As a result, I treat you like the clown you show yourself to be.
I fixed your post, but I cannot fix your stupidity.

Why do you keep making "I" so huge?
Bolding and increasing the font size doesn't mean anything....

You will have to excuse me Stim but when i did asked you.......... Riketto Wrote:
Do you have any evidence that all the package of body-mind and consciousness goes to the dogs?....................you reply...............Yes.
So how can you say that you are not making a claim?
And if you make a claim this claim should be backed down with evidence.
Do you follow me?

Excuse me once again mate but when you say.............. .Yes, a car can be idle. So can a lot of things. The brain isn't one of them................i do understand that the brain can do without the I that suppose to put the brains into gear.
In this way the brain is in total command according to what i do understand from your statement.
Further down when i say to you...............I must nominated you for the next Nobel prize for discovering how the intellect works..............you reply............... ..I didn't discover it. I just happened to tell you.
So according to me you imply that you know how the brain works.
Now how can you be so sure when in reality you still don't have any evidence of whatsoever that the brain is the entity that dictate what to do or to start the action of thinking?
Don't you think that well before you say that you know how the brain works you should have evidence that the brain is able to start the thinking and that the brain and the consciousness or the I are the same thing?
I realize that now you may be a bit confused but again it happen to anyone who for the first time come across something new for them so please don't give up.
