How can thoughts be consciousness if you can chose to ignore them?
What about this mysterious presence who can chose to ignore thoughts, or that supposedly has the free will to chose between them?

If you think that the topic of consciousness is no mystery and science has it all sewn up, then perhaps it's I who should wonder if you can keep a straight face when making that claim?
Christian - A moron who believes that an all-benevolent God can simultaneously be a hateful jealous male-chauvinistic pig.
Wiccan - The epitome of cerebral evolution having mastered the magical powers of the universe and is in eternal harmony with the mind of God.
Atheist - An ill-defined term that means something different to everyone who uses it.

Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.
Clearly Jesus (a fictitious character or otherwise) will forgive people if they merely know not what they do
For the Bible Tells us so!
