[QUOTE="DogmaHunter, post: 72858737, member: 346237"] You said it yourself: "[I]semantically[/I] speaking..." So you are arguing semantics. In reality, I don't see any objective difference between the conceptual abstract thought on the one hand and the actual physical brain activity on the other, as you can't have one without the other. The "thought" only exists as an abstract concept. What it actually physically[I] is[/I], are neurons firing in a brain. No neurons firing = no thought. Thoughts do not exist absent firing neurons in a living brain. If a tree had a conscious brain to think with, I'm sure he'ld find his branches very meaningfull. [/QUOTE]
