I defined mind in the definitions section...
I Wrote:Mind- simply that which produces consciousness. you can think of it as a product of material interactions or its own substance, but either way it cannot be denied mind exists.

now if you're accusing me of equivocation, then I'll have to ask exactly where I'm equivocating and how I'm equivocating (how my definitions or use of the terms are different).
I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with senses, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use and by some other means to give us knowledge which we can attain by them.
