It has been claimed that consciousness (your emotions thoughts etc) are simply a network of chemical reactions in your brain. (in other words, a purely natural phenomenon).
Therefore, when you die, or when human are not present, those emotions and thoughts have no existence. Because, as per the above worldview, those emotions/thoughts were simply a network of matter, so when that network was destroyed, the thoughts/emotions are destroyed too.
The same does not follow for logic.
the 1+1 statement holds true even without a human mind as I mentioned in the last post.
the question is then: Where does it exist? shouldn't it have been nonexistent, just like the other mental constructs of thoughts, emotions?
1+1=2 didn't exist anywhere. It is just words and symbols made by humans to describe something. The 1 represents one thing/object and the 2 represents two of those things/objects. Made by humans, for humans to understand. I don't understand the confusion.
It's not confusion. It's willful ignorance coupled with obfuscation.
