Panpsychism is not as crazy as it sounds.

[Mudhammam]

Divinity everywhere and within the nature of everything is pantheism.
Panpsychism is that the fundamental stuff of mind--which is not just electrochemical pulses but something more abstract, distinct from the physical, such as a thought of a pink elephant or a memory of a deceased family member--that IS a feature of the Universe as basic as gravity, and everything from the simplest forms of matter contain some form of it though it is realized by "us," our brain, our collection of cooperating and competing nerve cells, as conscious experience that emanates through countless, speedy neural firings

Where pantheism implies "soul" as this kind of deity, panpsychists are often naturalists in that mind is a natural phenomenon, not merely arising by natural law, but an integral law itself.

Thanks, that's why I edited my post, buddy. Why don't you quote what I re-wrote. I took two minutes to edit my words around and a few minutes later you respond. Give the post at least 5 minutes to sit a bit, that'd be nice.

I'll put what I re-wrote here so you don't have to go on page 5.

Clearly minds are sparse in the cosmos so it's just bullshit to claim you are surrounded by them other than beings with brains. If you want to essentially call every object conscious, or smaller yet, every particle conscious, you're free to be wrong.

This comes down to being pseudoscience when analyzed. People want to cling to ideas like Panpsychism or Panantheism or interesting ideas in Quantum Physics to keep their beliefs of divinity "conscious"

I didn't know about the five minute rule, buddy.

I don't think panpsychism is a scientific position, but a philosophical one. Science, though it has made tremendous progress in understanding the brain, hasn't really figured out the ontological gap that still exists between matter and mind, that is how one brings about the other which then in turn comes to understand itself, to contain a map of a gigantic Universe, which includes the brain itself, inside it. That's still a mystery. And one that scientific as well as philosophical speculation, from the functionalists to the panpsychists, try to fill in the gaps, to varying success. But to flat out deny any possible basis for eventually establishing or falsifying the "interesting ideas in QP" or theories of consciousness, by just dismissing them, seems naive.
