Re: Consciousness....a careful step by step analysis....
I tried and apparently proved that I'm not likely going to get anywhere with anyone here. I think I'm going to leave these forums. I honestly don't know where else to go online now for any forums given its the same everywhere. (?) Fuck.

Re: Is Success Luck or Hard Work?...
... It appears as if you are over-thinking this a bit. Those who are hard workers are generally going to do better than those who are not. This should be obvious to everybody who has attended school. You place the cart before the horse, as others here may be doing. The one paying the worker has the...

Re: Is the universe created from an "informationally-based" substance?
Just like you had no clue last time, and you won't have a clue next time. And you? Did you somehow disprove something I said as logically unsound? If so, show me. Consciousness to me is EASY to intepret but given the WAY many of you think in terms of a religious-like belief regarding your personal ...

Re: Consciousness....a careful step by step analysis....
Scott, A physical organ, namely the brain that originates and is minimally necessary for this phenomena. The brain appears necessary , but there's evidence the brain is not the source or sole source of consciousness (mind), so -- no -- I don't agree. I do not follow your criticism at all. I propose...

Re: Consciousness....a careful step by step analysis....
The word 'conscious' can be just in relation to 'awareness', itself. So, the word 'consciousness' can just mean, or refer to, 'being aware'. 'Matter' combined together into forms known as animals can be 'conscious', or just 'aware', of 'things'. Animals have senses, and brains. The senses carry 'in...

Re: What music are you listening to?
I am a musician with fair technical capacity but somewhat missed the windows of development in my youth that could have made it a career for me. I now play only for myself and.... ...while I was mostly a 'headbanger' in my youth, I now embrace most styles of music but less so on 'culturally' definin...

Consciousness....a careful step by step analysis....
I am going to attempt to explain what this with clarity but need to begin in steps that hopefully involve others willing to participate and 'agree' (or 'disagree') to some minimal facts regarding the description of the phenomena. All "conscious" experience involves the following: (1) A phy...

Re: Is the universe created from an "informationally-based" substance?
Skipped your posts, aren't you one of those people who can't tell the abstract from the concrete, so you are lost about what is real, and that's what gets you into philosophy? Looks like an example of being unable to tell abstract from concrete. Functionalism, emergence, bet you also reify abstract...

Re: Is the universe created from an "informationally-based" substance?
Why do people always have to mix THIS particular interpretation of QM with THIS particular understanding/misunderstanding of information. Are you referring to my posts responding to a side issue regarding consciousness? If so, what is your concern? If not, maybe reference who or which posts you're ...
