How do you explain the fact that brain damage in specific areas of the brain cause individuals to change their personalities completely? Or the fact that electroshock 'therapy' can have the same effect? How about drugs (that are just chemicals), that alter the personality of people that use them? A tablet of LSD may be worldview changing for you.
All the evidence points towards our conscience being nothing but a function of our brain that isn't more than chemical reactions and electrical impulses, but you seem to be claiming that this isn't the case, that there is more. What evidence do you have of this?
