Quote by: ItsDarts  HUH??? What does Russels tea pot have to do with this? RTP was an atheistic analogy to refute the idea that the burden of proof lies with the skeptic to disprove unfalsifiable claims of religion.
Ish is just trying to get you to define how consciousness can exist without meat? The only answer I can think of is a computer that's developed self awareness, but even this would have physical properties that could be detected. |
To build on this, consciousness / intelligence is evidenced to come from a gradual process with countless subtle steps. It's something that comes very "late" in existence. Not only do we have zero evidence of non-meat consciousness, we have no evidence that consciousness happens at the beginning of things.
I think I shall start a thread about Russel's Tea Pot...
