consciousness?

(February 16, 2013 at 10:10 pm)ChadWooters Wrote: Unfortunately no one has been able to provide a physical mechanism that links consciousness (however defined) to any unique brain process. It's just an assumption born of naturalistic bias.

Nobody has ever been able to provide an example of consciousness which exists independently of a biological brain, or offer any kind of plausible explanation as to how it may exist without a brain or some analog of a brain, but let's not get hung up on those details. Being a condescending douche takes a lot of concentration.
