As for mind itself being woo-- well, good luck with that. But for a guy who doesn't believe mind is a thing, you sure have a lot to say about mind.
Yeah you told me what your unsupported meaningless opinion is about your woo mind, and then you said I shared it, and I knew it. That was a lie.
You told me nothing. You tried to say there is a "mind". You have no evidence for that woo.
Quote:So far, you haven't said anything about the science of mind that I can't find in a grade 8 science book; it doesn't reveal any understanding at all of why there is subjective experience rather than not. If you think you are my "better," then surely you will be able to answer the question I can't-- what about the brain allows for subjective experience?
That's funny since you asked questions which demonstrate you didn't even know what was in a 6th Grade science book.
You have no clue how brains work, how memory works, or what actually constitutes a subjective experience, or how they arise.
I already told you how subjective experiences arise. It's actually very simple. If you knew ANYTHING about how brains work, it would be obvious.
There is no 'science of mind". There is no such thing as "mind". It's an ancient out-dated term, and is meaningless, except for old philoso-babble types who aren't really atheists or agnostics, but need to hide their gods in a box so they can lie to themselves about what they really are.
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell ![Popcorn Popcorn](https://atheistforums.org/images/smilies/popcorn.gif)
