When he said that we weren't seeking the truth, he was talking about me already having made up my mind. That's true, I have I accept that the brain is not the producer of consciousness but I will be willing to rethink if something turns up that proves it's not.
He has already made up his mind whatever new evidence is placed before him. He won't look at it.
I'm getting the sense here that you're doing your policing routine for the benefit of the community again. I'm the bad guy again right ? I don't see the relevance of this comment you've made.
I have to guess that Steve enjoys this community as a community or he would have no reason to be here otherwise.
Have I said otherwise. Am I being anti-social ? I simply responded to his question. Don't see what your problem is.
I'm just trying to make conversation, Tim. Not attacking you. Maybe another day. Is this stuff really that serious?
