It is one thing to say "The human is sentient" -- it is quite a different thing to prove the human sentient.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

This is an excellent thread, Morningstar! But as I have found complete Artifial Intelligence to be very far off indeed, a mechanically inclined friend of mine (who wants to build the first AI) decided on a new approach: To place a human consciousness within a mechanical body and brain. Though I do not completely understand it myself, should a android with an electronic brain that has a completely human conscience be given rights?
