On naturalism and consciousness

No you can't because that would be a fallacy of division. The collection of parts having a property doesn't mean the individual parts also have that property.

What you're saying is that celluloid film creates Casablanca, or that a CD creates an .mp3 song.

No, I'm saying Casablance was made by the actors, producers, etc... Their work was stored on celluloid film and a copy was made to a CD (or whatever other format you want to choose).

lol

Analogies. . . they are real.
