You're saying conciousness is required for conciousness.

My mind is my soul? We don't have any reason to believe the mind actually exists as anything other than an internal process of the brain. It's a description of what we appear to be experiencing, but in what way is conciousness real? Can anyone else detect or measure my soul, mind or conciousness?
Props though for bringing the discussion further forward than some threads have done in 70 pages.
