Quote:I've heard that one before. However, I was referring to what seems obvious to me, and that is that consciousness is not of the body.A belief without basis
Quote:Our thoughts do not come from random electrical impulses in the brain.There not random
Quote:Neither did our bodies come about by random acts of nature.Evolution is not random
Quote: It was designed just like a Boeing 747.No evidence of this and hoyles fallacy is still a fallacy . Evolution is nothing like a tornado and junk yard .
Quote:Nature had billions of years to design a 747, but it didn't.Why would nature produce a man made object ? And the fact it didn't says nothing about it's ability to make biological forms
Quote:Our bodies are much more complicated than a 747. There is a big problem with nature did it.Yup and there is every reason to believe it's a result of evolution . And no there is no problem as long as you don't make ludicrous strawman comparisons . Between natural things and man made things . Or comparing evolution to a tornado . There is a reason it's called Hoyles fallacy because it's fallacious .

Bare assertion and personnel credulity fallacies as well .
