If consciousness is a special state of matter, it should be analysable and detectable, right? Can't we apply scientific methods to the hypothesis that "there exist a special state of matter"?

I don’t think we can replicate this state solely with current electric components. What is way more interesting would be the connection of human nerve tissue and computers.
You think we get to know, or at least we can know, everything we want to know. Why? Is it faith? Or has your brain tricked you?
No, I don't think. I assume, and bring arguments, and can listen to others.
