Another believer! Faith in something there is no proof for.
Nope! There is absolutely no evidence that thought can exist independent of it's supporting infrastructure (nerves/brain) and A LOT of evidence that damage to said infrastructure causes sometimes huge changes in thought/mind therefore it is absolutely reasonable to infer that mind/thought CANNOT exist without a supporting infrastructure and as such it is YOU that is making the extraordinary claim and YOU that must provide the extraordinary evidence.
