[QUOTE="durangodawood, post: 71882504, member: 200668"] 1. I agree. 2. I also agree. But IF these chemicals are proven to affect the mind, then [I]that [/I]capacity would be redundant to a mind/consciousness that lives/feels in a non-physical realm. 3. I think subjective experiences are something that the mind [I]does. [/I]Like "running". Yes, legs and feet have mass. But "running" doesnt. So even in a strictly materialist view I wouldnt expect consciousness to be a physical [I]thing[/I]. 4. I do agree that science is not at all conclusive on this matter. But our current state of knowledge, to me, seems to point to some other realm as being likely redundant. We dont [I]need[/I] it to explain things. I do think that consciousness/mind is a sort of emergent property of a highly complex brain/organism. But I'm not 100% sure. Just seems that way so far. [/QUOTE]
