The Scripture Is False And The Biblical God Is Dead.

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

Suppose I tell you that I’m thinking of a number between one and ten, and I ask you to guess what it is. Can you make that guess without being aware that you’re making a guess?

Boru

I can’t at the moment.   but I can make a computer do so without being aware of its own doing so, which indicate it is in principle possible.   Also, Blind sight suggest humans do have the capacity to excute complex behavior that normally involve consciousness without the participation of consciousness.    So that fact that humans don’t, does not necessarily mean humans, not just computers, can’t under any circumstances.

That participation of consciousness seems nearly ubiquitous in complex human behavior does not prove the participation of consciousness is essential to all these behavior.

It indicates nothing of the sort until you can build a computer that is demonstrably self-aware. To compare human self-awareness with a non self-aware computer is ridiculous, because computers are aware of nothing. It’s like saying that since you can hit any computer with a hammer without causing pain, you can do the same with any human.
