On naturalism and consciousness

[bennyboy]

If you think that my understanding of QM is insufficient in the context of this argument, go ahead and set me straight. Explain the difference between gates at the macro level and events at the quantum level. Or, since you know so much more than me, let's head to 1-vs-1 debate, and you can bring the details of your apparently much-superior mechanical theory of mind.

If you want argue about a physical explanation of the mind, Rythm is more informed than myself. If you want to argue about QM or basic science, bring it on.

I want to talk about about whether QM events can be considered in Rhythm's gate-based model of mind, and whether my idea that all energetic exchanges may be said to involve a kind of fundamental "mind stuff"-- i.e. single-substance, dual-property physico-idealism, is compatible with his view. If you have something useful to say about QM in this context, which I don't know, then I'm all ears, and I'll swallow my pride and learn something.
