The human brain is under a delusion that it is a mind

[Mudhammam]

The human brain is a physical object under a delusion that it is something more than a physical object -- a mind, that exists outside the realm of the physical.

An atheist's task is to convince the human brain that it is nothing more than a biological machine, which operates with neurons and chemicals, rather than gears and levers.

Once that task is complete, we can abandon all belief in the soul, the spiritual world, and the afterlife.

Discuss.

Nope. I'm not under the delusion that my soul exists outside of the "gears and levers" of my "biological machine." The soul is the illusion that these experiences resulting from physical interactions between "neurons and chemicals" and external objects are contained within a unity of apprehension (mind) that is divisible from the multiple simultaneous functions of the brain.
