El-
Are you saying that 'comparitive conciousness' is a strange idea? (below)
"So, you can claim that there is such a thing as comparatively conscious (a
phrase I'd compare to "comparatively pregnant"), but only if you can show
that atoms are language users. Somewhat unlikely. But if atoms aren't
language users and thus don't experience SQ there is absolutely no way you
can compare the awareness of an atom to the awareness of a scientist to come
out with your desired conclusion that a scientist is more aware than an
atom."
Are you as concious when asleep as when awake?
