Benny, lol, I really don't. If I wanted to prove anything, I'd do so in the only manner it could -be- done, by a positive case for my own position, not some negative nonsense about yours. No amount of me proving you wrong would prove me right, in any case. That's how batshit christers argue, lol.
I'm answering questions you've put to me about explanations of qualia in a material monist framework. Trying to help you see when your objections are not objections, and when your objections defeat your own position. QM, for example, is a materialist explanation. It is, case in point, one of any number of distal causes to which a materialist can point to in a material monist explanation of qualia. If you want to propose something other than a materialistic explanation of qualia, you will have to look somewhere other than QM.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
