So here's my theory
#20
RE: So here's my theory
I see we have a young Descartes on our hands here.

Consciousness is derived from complex intra-neural communication, thus, when we die, so do our neurons. This yields a body that is no longer conscious. It is simple.

If the conscious soul resides separate from the body, and each person who exists contains this soul, then why are we not conscious before conception?

Is it because you only become conscious at the moment thereafter?

Well, of course! Because the formation and complete development of the human brain gives rise to this phenomena.
Take the risk of thinking for yourself, much more happiness, truth, beauty, and wisdom will come to you that way - Christopher Hitchens
