Consciousness Trilemma

[Edwardo Piet]

1) Conscious experience is not an illusion.
2) Conscious experience has an essentially subjective character that purely physical processes do not share.
3) The only acceptable explanation of conscious experience is in terms of physical properties alone.

1) is true but I not only consider 2) false but I also consider 3) false if what it means is that the mental reduces to the physical or can be explained by the physical. 3) can be correct if it also includes the option that the mental itself is itself wholly physical as opposed to merely being explained by or reduced to the physical.
