If you say so, but that doesn't really change the contents of my comments anymore than anything before it did.
If qualia is the subjective experience of what things are like...that doesn't sound like a full description of whats going on in my mind any more than our qualia is a full description of our field of observation.
Again, our minds are doing alot of things, most of which we have no experience of whatsoever.
Do you remember the statement that this refers to?
You indicated that the mind didn't seem to be doing anything, or have any purpose, aside from qualia. That can only -be- true if you're using the two terms synonymously...but if you're using the two terms synonymously it's truth is inconsequential and uninformative. The "Not mind" is doing alot of things, then...as well as doing qualia/mind - this is a bit of the Not mind, which is definitely not any bit of the brain. Not only is your concern irrelevant to evolutionary biology, it's content is false on it's face.
An artifact of your semantics, nothing more or less.
