It's a very complex subject. Even I'm having trouble understanding some parts. However after months of reading I've learnt quite a bit.
I remember someone mentioning an old 90's computer and that it could never be turned off because all the data in it would be lost. The computer had to be left on for the data to remain and that just like the human brain, if it ever shuts down all the information that makes you who you are and allows conciousness would be destroyed and so ultimately, you cease to exist. Seeing as all the years of data being stored would be destroyed through inactivity. We dream while sleeping to keep the brain active.
We are the brain and when it finally shuts down, it'll be the end of you. Does anyone find that....scary or worrying?

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
