Are you seriously humoring that troll? Well, whatever floats your boat.


It must be sad for you to see that other people got a thinking brain, isn't it Ast?  Smile



Quote:Never mind the fact that we can perform biological tests to evaluate something as advanced as brain states for various emotional responses and feelings. So while the emotional feeling is subjective, there's evidence galore that it's having an effect on the body consistent with specific types of emotions. Not that shit-eater is capable of comprehending this.


You are a total fool Ast.  Shy
Where is the evidence that the consciousness can be understood in full by analyzing the brain?  I'm all ears!

How to prove the reality of a party that can't be seen, touched, smelled, tasted, heard, detected by any instruments devisable by science, or discernible indirectly by effects for which it is the most probably explanation is certainly a conundrum. Imaginary friends share all of those qualities, unless you define them as a specific kind of brain activity. The brain activity is certainly real.

The science you are talking about is called physical science for a reason.
It is physical MA not abstract.
Consciousness on the other hand is something abstract and therefore got to be understood by a science that is not physical.
You never heard of?
Well, you are not the only one MA.
That however is a different story.
Sooner or later you like everybody else will hear of.
There is all the eternity to find out.
Nothing is lost.  Shy
