Let me assure you I have, and then I laughed at the absurdity and moved on. If something relies on x, then that x is the boss, at least to a certain extent. They are real close to cars that can drive themselves, but that's another topic. You haven't provided any evidence that your analogy is accurate. As far as I'm concerned, I've seen no evidence that a soul exists so yes, the body does do the driving and is nothing like a car. How come when you aren't in REM sleep you can't remember what it's like? How come when people are in comas, it's like they just don't exist? How come certain brain injuries can completely change a person's personality? How come when the brain doesn't make enough of certain chemicals it is very difficult for a person to be happy? The brain seems to be the one in charge, not a soul. Where is your evidence that a soul exists? You keep bringing up NDEs, where the heart and breathing have stopped. But for the brain, it takes six minutes without oxygen for the brain to even begin to die. Who knows what supply of oxygen it had before the heart stopped? And of course the temperature of the body affects this time too, the colder you are the longer your brain can live. My point is, LR, that even when someone is clinically dead it does not mean they are brain dead, or even close. So all those NDEs could indeed be explained by the brain hallucinating as it loses oxygen and begins to die.
Sure, I like a good challenge. And you absolutely are one since you refuse to back up anything you say with actual evidence. But it's fun, so I won't complain too much
I enjoy a challenge too but not when, as you point out, your jackass opponent refuses to back up anything you say, constantly and wrongly tells you you're wrong like a petulant fucking child, and projects every form of idiocy they commit onto you.
Yeah, I'm tiring of this guy quickly. A couple more of his nonsensical posts and I'll be ignoring him like the rest of the forums. Then maybe he'll just go away
Being careful is for people who can't handle surprises.
