I'd want to see what animal studies they did to make sure that the helmet isn't tearing things up in there. To get the brain to misbehave via abnormal stimuli generally takes amplitudes greater than what physiology provides under more normal circumstances. Might not be damaging, but this is the only brain I'm likely to get, it'd be a shame if something happened to it particularly in pursuit of folly. At least we have post-mortem evidence that pursuit of transcendence via drug use can be structurally destructive. The Neurobiology of Ecstasy (MDMA)

So how, exactly, does God know that She's NOT a brain in a vat? Huh
