There is no "I" in "You"

[Ben Davis]

You're posts are not answering anything. Your outlines are explaining to me how you exists as you and I as I....rather than how in another possible world the precise inverse may have occurred and by what determination does the current scenario exist.

They are providing you with complete and elegant answers but you're still missing the point. If the exact circumstances leading to the rise of our specific brains don't occur, we don't exist at all. We are fluke, each an every one of us. It's not as if our consciousnesses are floating around somewhere waiting for brains to inhabit. A different sperm fertilises 'your' egg? You don't exist. A different egg is fertilised by 'your' sperm? You don't exist. If almost any of the seemingly numberless events preceding your conception happen differently, you don't exist.

The "gotcha" is in your conspicuous lack of answers... 

The problem seems to be that you don't realise how unique and tenuously rare your existence is. The elegance of the reality of the situation seems to escape you, maybe because you have some unconscious assumptions about the nature of existence built in to your models. You've shared quite a lot in other conversations in this thread so I'll have a re-read and see if any of them jump out at me.

Is this another "gotcha" moment?

Quite possibly but not, I think, in the way you're imagining.
