Qualia Soup "Putting Faith In Its Place"
#13
RE: Qualia Soup "Putting Faith In Its Place"
I went over this ad nauseum in another thread about souls in another thread. Until you eliminate all possibility that information can be attain or processed without brain function, you can't suppose that the the all of the mental constructs (materialists call mind, some religious call souls and differintiate from personality and processing) is completely dependant on the brain. Death is a process for sure, but at what point does the mind cease? If there is even once case of verifiable information after this point (which is yet to be defined) then that would indicate a non-materialistic brain-mind consciousness. As of yet science is still trying to define that point I believe. one of many sites (it was top of my google search) But I don't think it's nearly as definitive as you're making it seem.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
