You put words in my mouth. Strawman.

Your naturalistic bias has already precluded you from considering evidence.

The content in question is thought in both instances. And you have not provided a distinguishing property that allows one to generate qualia but not the other.

And what is the difference between the two areas of physical storage other than the mode of writing?

Strawman. I never said faith statements are equally valid. Only that yours is absurd. I’ll take that as an admission that your belief is based on faith and not evidence.
(February 17, 2013 at 5:14 pm)Ryantology Wrote: YOU CAN'T PROVE IT IS NATURAL RIGHT THIS MINUTE THEREFORE IT DEFINITELY IS NOT
Strawman. I’m only saying that it’s an open question. You will not acknowledge that fact because you have already closed your mind to other possibilities.
