MYP: Your ideas are "egocentric"': and, while they may be "right" for you, they may be "wrong" for others. When you look at things, you have to look at the "big picture." The important thing is where you fit in to the grand scheme of things.

I think the back-and-forth in this thread alone between me and clax is misleading without a background on some of our past debates. A lot of what he and I am saying has to do with how each of us argues points, etc. All my claims here are not just because of what he said in this thread, although he continues to use some of the same flaws and logical fallacies in trying to make his points.

All that being said, sensation very much has a chemical basis, as do memory and experience in general. Everyone is entitled to their philosophical opinions, but to reject the facts is just wrong.

Some people seem to think everything is metaphysical even when it can be explained rationally.

You can loose the ability to do everything if you sever the right neurons, what the hell is your point, if you really have one.

What I was saying is the experience is not just neurological, obviously, because there has to be something to experience, a non neurologic event. Removing memory doesn't mean it didn't happen, or that it has no effect. It just means you don't remember.

come up with some cockamamie misuse of language, or Wright 900 words expressing nothing to do with my last post and insist that you are correct.

In the typical arrogant way you do myp. Such a classic example of a brainwashed college student

You say metaphysic but you are ignoring physics. Allow me to elaborate.

Take this example, you are walking by a construction sight, and a brick falls off of scaffolds and hits you. You no doubt feel pain as a result, pain is a chemical response neurologically speaking. But it is the effect of a brick falling and hitting you. the chemical response is a response that is why it is called a response. you wouldn't have felt the pain if the brick didn't hit you.

My original statement was that the chemistry is an effect not a cause.

No, Nemo hit the nail on the head, logic is also subjective
