Little Rikky is sort of like what MK would be as a xtian.

That’s what I thought, lol.

That's what losers do time and time again.
Instead of answering the question which of course they are unable to answer   they resort to the usual trick which is to pretend that the question was never asked and at the same time ask a question in return.

Shame again woman.  

LR however is not a loser like you that refuse to answer questions.

The dogma that consciousness is a product of the brain is very very easily destroyed.
Even plants do have consciousness yet do not have brain so brain can not possibly give birth to consciousness.
Consciousness therefore is everywhere and it doesn't need a brain to born so to speak.
A brain is needed when more consciousness wish to expand that is why animals and humans have one.

Science already established that plants have consciousness and this consciousness is unstoppable on his way to reach the perfect stage.


Here is the very science that of course once again contradict atheists dogmas.

Little bit of hypocrisy on your part there, Rik. Jus' sayin'.

Plus your article is hardly conclusive. It says so right in the article itself. You are jumping to conclusions.

For some researchers, evidence of these complex communication systems -- emitting noises via gas when in distress -- signals that plants feel pain. Others argue that there cannot be pain without a brain to register the feeling. Still more scientists surmise that plants can exhibit intelligent behavior without possessing a brain or conscious awareness [source: Pollan].

Those who say that ............there cannot be pain without a brain to register the feeling........got it wrong.
If plants wouldn't feel pain why then they emit sign of distress.
They have no brain yet they register the pain somewhere.
Where then other than in the consciousness considering that there is no brain?
Obviously the consciousness is there even in plants.

Any kind of behavior need to be registered somewhere otherwise there wouldn't be a repetition of the same behavior under the same circumstances.
There would be some different reaction every time the same thing happen but it doesn't that is why there is consciousness that make plants react in the same way under the same circumstances.

The production and emission of VOCs doesn't depend on a brain or on consciousness.  In most cases they're released by default through over saturation (that's what's happening when you smell mint) and in others their release is predicate on damage to containing tissues or connected sensory tissue.  While plant behavior is interesting, it's not a mystery..there's no gap to shove a ghost into in any of it.  They serve as a better example..if we're going to compare ourselves to plants, of how we might not require "consciousness", ourselves, to achieve similar effects.  

But I guess I can't prove that plants didn't kick dogs in a previous life..so, you know..I did think of that.

Nowhere in that article did it say that plants have consciousness, lol.  Nothing described by that article had anything to do with consciousness.  You’re a weird little bird, Ricky.

Wrong once again.  

If you would have paid attention to the article you would have understood that certain reactions only happen under certain circumstances like when the grass is cut a certain smell is released.
The release of that particular smell is not happening under other different circumstances.
This clearly show that your point in which the smell is released through over saturation is a load of BS.

An instance of damage to containing tissue.  

The release of that particular smell is not happening under other different circumstances.

You could tear the grass or chew on it and the voc is released.  Though, for most of us, you've have to hit a substantial patch of grass. Mowing the lawn is pronounced for the massive amount of damage a mower inflicts over a wide area.

This clearly show that your point in which the smell is released through over saturation is a load of BS.  

You don't have to cut mint to smell it..though it does help to pronounce the effect if you crush it, causing further damage to already saturated tissue.

Aromatics are the worst example of what you're trying to drive at. There are much better ones. Like plants that release predator specific vocs that call in help from predators of the predators. We know how they do that, too, though, and the answer isn;t "brain" or "consciousness"

OFC, I can;t prove that the cricket didn't kick dogs in a previous life...so maybe it;s happening by karma, nothing to do with the underlying mechanics of the plant tissue... because jimminy deserved it. Did you think of that?

FOOL.






Who else can register a distress call other than the consciousness considering that plants do not have a brain?

I thought of it, I thought of everything because I've had infinite past lives to think about things. I just keep forgetting it all every time I die. What a silly system.
