It's not anti Science to point out that Science does in fact have Zero understanding with regard to Consciousness. Most real Scientists would probably...

I'm attacking the Physicalists that push the, lets call it what it is, Lie that Science understands Consciousness even in the most fundamental way. Sc...

Exactly. I too have been driven to Dualism. I decided to concentrate mostly on how Visual perception works. I like to specifically understand How we e...

Now I really don't understand what you are saying. But that's ok you could be right. When it comes to Consciousness all ideas are still on the table.

Good links. Thank You.

So you are saying that all the Neural and Retinal processing (adding the What's What) produces the Visual/Auditory Impressions that we experience. It'...

The website http://TheInterMind.com delves into Dualism. Arguments for a Conscious Mind that is separate from the Physical Mind (Brain) are developed....

That's how it is when someone has a Belief about something. None of us can truly comprehend Infinity with our limited Human Brains. Every time you rea...

Lets consider the points on the interval 0 to 1 on the x axis. Assume a point is just a location on the interval and the point itself has zero width o...

I suppose that is one way to state the Hard Problem. But what is the Solution? If you are saying that your statement is also the Solution then I don't...

But we are saying there are two different categories of Phenomena happening here. The first is the Neural Activity the second is the Conscious experie...

I say that: 1) Neural Activity happens 2) A Conscious experience happens 1 and 2 are the two things we know that are happening. We don't know why 2 ha...

1 and 2 certainly hold in the manifested Physical Universe that exists today. But these are unproven theories when it comes to the reality before the ...

We don't give up but we look for the extended Naturalistic rules that probably apply before the Beginning. What Naturalistic rules can cause the Infla...

I agree it is amazing. It is an amazing Mystery as to How our Conscious Minds present this Light Show to us..

I'm actually perplexed as to how you think that just saying: "The totality of visual experiences is simply there" is any kind of answer to the Hard Pr...

Yes I understand what you mean by Naturalism. But how can you know that Naturalism holds before the Beginning? Naturalism might only hold after a Univ...

But then the question becomes: How does Only a combination of the totality of visual experiences and retinal activity (sketchy images) produce a "Cons...

Without LSD I can See some things that are more than random noise. For example I can See Vortices where there will be a small circular section in the ...

We don't even really know what any kind of Something is. You could be right. But when it comes to before the beginning nobody knows anything. What is ...

"Something can't come from nothing" is an unproven Belief when it comes to the beginning of everything. No one knows what happened back then. Science ...

Just a thought: The premise that we start with is that Before The Beginning there was Absolute Nothing. There was no Energy, and there was no Matter, ...

Imagine a Square drawn on a piece of paper. Now imagine the Square shrinking smaller and smaller. It remains a Square no matter how small it shrinks. ...

We do not See things in the external World, but rather we Detect things by using internal Conscious processes that we are born with. We all have a per...

I may have forgotten to mention that the Rods, Cones, etc. of the Retina are considered to be specialized Neurons. The Retina is just an extension of ...

Infinity is a Mathematical fiction and should be applied carefully to the World of Physical Things. For example we can say that there are an Infinite ...

Quite correct. But I still think that the non-Physical will be understood by Science someday if only they would sit back, relax, and think more Deeply...

The Infinitely Large and the Infinitely Small are a real pain in the Brain.

I read articles summarizing the Book. I know that's not like reading the whole book, but I got a good feel for the book. I did not see from the summar...

I didn't say that what I said was any argument for Theism. You added that. The statement assumed that the Theists just Believe in things. I was only p...

I say that Infinity is a Mathematical Fiction that only exists in the world of Mathematics. But since the construction of the Zeno Paradox uses Infini...

Mescaline trips are interesting but they do not shed any insight into the question at hand. Don' t understand what the Pea Pod growth behavior has to ...

I like to think of the Qualia as Data for the Conscious Mind Processor.

The Zeno paradox, where to walk any finite distance you have first walk half the distance, then half of the remaining distance etc. is a paradox becau...

From my dealings with Atheists, when you pin them down, they will admit that they can only Believe there is no God. Proof to come later.

I wouldn't be so sure that Space can be Infinitely divided. I'll give that a Maybe. It might be subject to the Planck Constant. I don't think you shou...

But when I look at a particular scene in front of me How is that Scene Image presented for me to See it? It appears that the scene I am looking at is ...

There is no paper on how Consciousness is produced from the Neural Activity in the Brain. The Retina is just an extension of the Brain and the Rods an...

Space is definitely a Thing. There can be the 3D Space that we are familiar with, but there can also be 4D Space for example. 4D Space is a whole diff...

There is no activity in the Rods and Cones when Dreaming. Eye movements don't create Visual Scenes. Something at a further stage of the processing see...

I agree that it is tempting to give more weight to the contribution the Retina makes in the Visual System because it is only in the Retina that the Im...

Your sequence is probably correct.

3 things can exist but an infinite amount of things can not.

One thing Science is pretty sure about is that there is lots of Neural Processing that happens before a Conscious experience happens. The question is,...

If the Optic Nerve is severed then it does not matter how much Light is directed to the Retina. The person would be blind. It seems that to have a Vis...

Nobody knows why. The appropriate question is, given that Neural Activity seems to precede Conscious Activity, How does the Neural Activity lead to th...

I seems that for Sensory input that there has to be Neural Activity before the Conscious experience happens.

Especially since Science won't let Scientists investigate Consciousness. Any and all thoughts are still on the table.
