> No one knows how consciousness works. Well, we have a rough understand of what the concept represents, at least, don't we? It's like saying "we don't know how quantum physics works so we cannot talk about particles or waves". We have to start from somewhere. We have to make assumptions. When they are cleared and resolved, we can be more confident with our words. > That fact is, the physiology of the brain, the integration with the endocrine system, and the whole distributed nervous system is so far more complex that a Von Newman computer, that to try to compare the two is just not well founded in reality. That's part of my point, too, btw. It's ambiguous on purpose, when I mention reflections and echoes, these can happen through a multitude of media, whether it may be neurons, hormones, quantum physics or the ether, whatever may be anyone's interpretation. |
