Erin, you said
It is like you (Ian) are saying that the consciousness is not real
because science has not explained it yet. You believe they will
explain it one day but this belief is not faith in science because of
its good explantion which is errrr "a gap in knowledge"
IAN: I say, I'm saying absolutely nothing of the kind.
ERIN: You said "For example, I do in fact believe that intelligence and consciousness beyond the confines of individual brains (or minds) will turn out to be real - explainable by physics." WILL TURN OUT TO BE REAL --my interpretation is fair to me considering what you wrote
NOW you say you believe " Consciousness "is as real as anything else" in this real world."
IAN: The fact that you see fit to paraphrase / caricature what science says
that way is the kind of thing that drives me nuts, particularly
slipping in those causal "becauses".
ERIN: No Ian I only know what you think by what you tell me...don't blame me if you contradict yourself.
