By what method of determination do you experience existence separate from turtle experience; more to the point, what determined both my and the turtle's particular experiences and could one have been shunt in place of another (by what alternate means could turtle have experienced existence through my perspective or vice versa)?
Why at the market or the zoo, why this morning...why not exist a thousand years from now or deep in the ocean?
Can this ever be coherently approached or determined materialistically/scientifically? Or, is the true question "why is there no turtle in me?"
Good question.
I await a good atheist answer. (Good luck with that.)
