You just have to agree to disagree.
I'm sure you did all have good reasons. I'm just trying to help you see things in a different way, so that you no longer hate the idea of God and eternal life. I fully understand that my attempt may be futile, but it is worth a shot if it helps even one person consider something they had not considered before. True love with your soulmate/other half should get you some of the way there....

And yes science sure has guessed at an enormous amount of things or they never would have gotten anywhere. A hypothesis is merely an educated guess. And how are you claiming these so called "reflexes" came to be in the first place?
You provided no reference from a mine-line neuroscientist for this woo crap you support.
(You claim to have an education .... LOL)
Paramecium do not "appear" to be conscious. They have REFLEXES, built in by evolution. A "reflex" is not a conscious choice.
There is NOT ONE instance EVER, where paramecia appear to make a choice COUNTER to what one would expect from its reflexes.
You STILL have not explained IN YOUR OWN WORDS what the Penrose experiment proves and supports.
Reflexes yes.
Quote:Avoidance reaction is a term used in the description of the movement of paramecium. This helps the cell avoid obstacles and causes other objects to bounce off of the cell's outer membrane. The paramecium does this by reversing the direction in which its cilia beat. This results in stopping, spinning or turning, after which point the paramecium resumes swimming forward. If multiple avoidance reactions follow one another, it is possible for a paramecium to swim backward, though not as smoothly as swimming forward.[1]
Avoidance reaction occurs when the cell hits an obstruction, providing an anterior, mechanical stimulus: - The cell will then reverse. - It will then stop and rotate. - Now facing a new direction, the cell will move off in that direction.
This process will continue until the cell is able to negotiate its way around the obstruction.
Movement of Paramecium cells is caused by control of calcium ions inside the cell and membrane potentials. The simplest explanation for the avoidance reaction is that membrane potential controls the influx of calcium ions, which regulates the beat frequency and angles of cilia on the surface of the cell.
.
They've seen this happen under the microscope. For some one so interested in this I wonder why you no know this?

You can laugh at the truth but you can't change the fact that it is still the truth.
That is true.
However what you think is the truth isn't.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
