Foundation of all Axioms the Axioms of Consciousness

RE: Foundation of all Axioms the Axioms of Consciousness
(September 20, 2016 at 4:31 am)Jörmungandr Wrote: I'm not sure how you are using the word axiom here, but 3 and 4 seem far from axiomatic.  Even 1 and 2 are highly complex phenomena.

I am presenting a description of my conscious experience as an axiom. The reader is expected to verify the validity of this axiom in relation to their own personal conscious experience.

If the reader accepts the axiom as a valid description of their conscious experience then the rest of the story can follow. If not the story has no validity.

The intent of the story (yet to be presented) is to take the current accepted scientific understanding of the physical world and find  a process or a set of processors that can be identified as being the physical basis or mechanism that can bring about the axioms.

Now obviously my so called current accepted scientific understanding can be a point of contention to any reader as such I will state them without justification and again just like the axioms if the reader disagrees that it is accepted science then again the story fails.

1. Now in the current accepted scientific understanding all of the processors needed to bring about the axioms takes place in the brain.
2. Of the many activities in the brain a subset namely what is know as neural activities alone is taken to be fully responsible for the axioms.
3. Neural activities consist of nerve impulses and the transmission of neuro transmitters across synapses in synaptic vesicles.
4. The location of any physical process can be given by a set of events in space-time. That is as a set of points in space across time.

Do you agree so far?
Thanks
