Agree or disagree: the mind is not "real."
A mind is the delusion the brain has that it exists somewhere that is not purely physical.
We are all sacks of meat, with no more inherent value than a side of bacon or a beef patty on a hamburger.
All we have to do to change a mind is pump the brain up with the proper chemicals and neurological impulses.
Even personality can be changed with the right drugs and electrical inputs.
So "we" (our minds) don't exist.
Our emotions aren't real.
Everything we think, feel, love, hate isn't real.
Nothing is real, other than the material world.
And since our experience of the material world is processed through a "mind" that is a delusion, we can't even be sure of that.
