So because a brain has electrical activity and neurons hold and exchange charges as a natural process it means ghosts/souls are real? If the video memory of your computer is used to draw on screen a fantasy character in a video game does that make that character real? That memory has a couple of million of transistors that hold information in a dynamic mode (it changes many times per second to give the watcher the illusion of movement). Your brain has several billion neurons that hold information. The change in that information is what we call thoughts. I can't explain it in a more simpler way, honestly.
I have no problem sharing a common ancestor with the apes; it's being related to some people that bothers me.
