Evolution cannot account for morality

[Jehanne]

I never said that; instead, think for yourself, be critical (even judgmental) of your sorces, respect (to an extent) scholarly consensus, and, if you disagree with the scholarly consensus (in some instances, I do), understand why you disagree.  For instance, I think that the Academy has whitewashed the early conquests of Islam and the violent teachings of Muhammad, but, that's for another thread!

Seems reasonable enough. You seem to me like a person that is capable of proper discourse, though I would assume that you often hold yourself back because of doubts possibly, or assuming that just because someone else is an expert that you cannot provide a wonderful contribution (especially given enough education) to the topic.

I have spoken (or tried to) to a biologist that is currently working on a theory of "quantum consciousness", if you will. Almost nothing that he said as part of his thesis was understandable to me, but there was one short sentence that I commented on, to which he pretty much immediately dismissed me and continued to talk to others instead. 

That was my only interaction in the conversation, needless to say.

Now maybe one day I will learn more about his theory, but as it stands, it is merely a missed opportunity because one of the parties is incapable of having proper discourse. Rather than giving me more insight into the thesis so that I might provide some of my own intuitive insights, he considered my overall opinion, based on one comment, to be of little to no value. Such is his right, but again, this is not proper discourse.

Also, he seemed to be making no headway in his conversation with others, but at least they were able to stroke his ego and allow him to feel intellectually superior. As I said, like pretty much nothing in his thesis was understandable, and yet he was casually discussing it on a thread. It's a shame.

For a theory to be scientific, it has to make testable predictions. I would be astonished if a model of quantum consciousness could make any empirical predictions whatsoever. By the correspondence principle, what's going on in our brains is at the level of biochemistry, not quatum physics.
