You have an absurdly bad logical argumentation and zero common sense.raw_thought wrote:1. If pain is only c fibers firing (there is nothing pain feels like) then there is nothing wrong with torture, if it doesnt result in physical damage. Why would anyone care if c fibers fire up?
2. Visualize a triangle. Anti- qualia people ( if they are consistent) must say that it is impossible to visualize a triangle. I know that I can visualize a triangle. I trust my empirical data.
There is no objective visualized triangle. My neurons do not fire in a triangular shape. If I visualize green, no part of my brain turns green.
Since no one can see my visualized triangle, an anti qualia person must say that it doesnt exist. In other words I cannot visualize a triangle.True, I cannot prove that I am visualizing a triangle. However, I am absolutely certain that I can visualize a triangle.
Visualize a triangle. If you can you have just proved to yourself that qualia exist!
You don't even have the most basic understanding of torture, it amazes me how ignorant you are. People who are tortured even with very mild forms of torture like "water boarding" where there are no physical damage, can suffer from mental breakdowns, and their neurological damage can be permanent. Haven't you heard about PTSD? Flash backs?
When you can't distinct the imaginative power of the mind of physical existence, only witness about your inept mind.
You are the kind that needs sub basic things explained to you.
