Proof Mind is Fundamental and Matter Doesn't Exist
RE: Proof Mind is Fundamental and Matter Doesn't Exist

But I can say that I suspect if I go to a brain lab and watch people do experiments and stuff, my observations will be pretty consistent with what you are saying.

I didn't mean to offend you Benny. I just wanted to clarify that point to understand your position better. But I wasn't judging - I'm in no position to judge because you three are far more intelligent than I will ever be, and that's just a fact. So whether the answer was yes or no, it would make no difference to me, because I just want to understand it. Just as I want to understand Rhythm's and AKD's positions.
