This is a far cry from having explained anything that resembles the question stated. It reminds me of the cartoon of two professors at the chalk board full with formulas and somewhere in the middle the note "and then a miracle happens", I'm sure you know the one. Also, I did ask you to explain it to me, not to redirect me to other internet sources.
But cheer up, there is some consolation for you in the fact that no one as of yet has been able to do what you suggested you can do. We are only just understanding some basic things of the brain, the gap between neurons firing and first person awareness of mathematical concepts however hasn't been bridged at all.
theVOID Wrote:If you disagree with the aforementioned then do you want to explain how a non-physical (non brain) process is supposed to do mathematics? What does it use as variables if not electrical signals?I do not necessarily disagree with the aforementioned, but I do disagree that it is anything near an 'explanation'. Also questioning a statement of yours is not the same as claiming the opposite of that statement. So there is no obligation for me whatsoever to reason in favour of that. You have made the assertion, the burden of proof is on you. You showed yourself quite confident in your opening post about your ability in explaning this but it seems to me right now that your words don't quite match with what's under the hood.
