Modal Argument: The Mind is Not the Brain

[Esquilax]

Chas, prove that mental properties are emergent. As opposed to received or having preexisting harmony.

Yeah, see, when we have a brain, and every time that brain is damaged the mental properties in it are affected, in some cases outright bifurcated in the case of split brain patients, and when pumping chemicals into the body causes altered states of consciousness, and when cutting out pieces of the brain can sometimes change a personality or how those mental properties operate, and when sufficient brain damage causes mental properties to cease, and when we can map changes in mood and reactions to external stimuli directly onto the brain, and a bunch of other things, the natural conclusion one comes to is that mental properties are tied to the brain they live in.

Your claim has no evidence- that I have seen- backing it, and so I'm more interested in how you would go about justifying it as a contention against what we know to be true about the interactions between the brain and the mind. And even what "recieved" mental properties having a "preexisting harmony" even means.
