In the section after the one you are directing us to, he's making arguments about materialism that I've made about idealism, and arguments about idealism that Rhythm has made about idealism. I like the idea of drawing on outside sources. Maybe we should bring in a couple more videos on both sides of the issue, for extra thinking material.
I haven't seen the rest of the video yet, since the section I directed you to distracted me with some food for thought. But would you say that at least the section about the brain/mind conundrum is accurate to your (our?) view on consciousness?
