    Any Arguments by which to Conclude that Consciousness Is a Product of Brains?

    What about people with Dementia and how the different parts of the brain which store "short-term" and "long-term" memories are affected by the condition? For example if the "short-term" region of the brain is affected then sufferers cannot remember what they ate for breakfast that day, but can...

    Any Arguments by which to Conclude that Consciousness Is a Product of Brains?

    Go and inflict physical damage to your skull and once your brain has suffered sufficient physical damage, come back to your computer and respond to me via the mystical energy which is "storing" your consciousness and driving your body. Otherwise quit peddling your pathetic "everything is energy...

    Any Arguments by which to Conclude that Consciousness Is a Product of Brains?

    Oh, and I suppose you think it's unreasonable to make those connections. Tell me then, Shaman, how does this mystical "energy" work which "houses" our consciousness?

There are reports of people's personalities/mental capabilities changing after certain areas of the brain are...

    Should America have gotten involved in the first gulf war?

    He didn't have any in the sense that we were told he did: dirty ICBMs which could be launched "in 45 minutes". I never understand how someone who is normally so happy to trash and distrust the government on domestic issues - such as regulation or healthcare - is so willing to play along with...

    Should America have gotten involved in the first gulf war?

    US troops were exposed by fumes when destroying stockpiles of Iraqi chemical weapons. . . which the US helped Saddam develop.

    Every country should be run by secular governments

    What gives you the ability to determine the number of "divine" religions? There have been countless different religions all throughout human history, most of which have probably been retired to the dustbin of history. No: you have chosen to willingly become a slave to a belief system, not me...

    Should America have gotten involved in the first gulf war?

    If I remember correctly, the last time someone on RF tried to convince me that Saddam had WMDs, I was directed to news articles regarding IEDs and undetonated artillery shells found in Iraq. :/

    Every country should be run by secular governments

    Encouraging violence against apostates is nothing more than intolerance and cult-like. Supporting violence for apostates says a lot about the tolerance of Islam.

    I agree with you there, down with that mongrel!

    Ft. Lauderdale Airport Shooting

    Hey, it can work depending on the country/culture. Not having to worry about mass shootings and having universal healthcare are big advantages.

    Every country should be run by secular governments

    That isn't tolerance, that's the complete opposite. I'm so thankful I don't live under a theocracy.

    Every country should be run by secular governments

    Not according to their scriptures and followers.

    Every country should be run by secular governments

    Ah, theocracy. . . so you're happy living under a Christian or Jewish theocracy then?

    Every country should be run by secular governments

    Amen sister, preach it! :p

    Every country should be run by secular governments

    Oh I see, fair enough. Apologies for the misunderstanding.

    Every country should be run by secular governments

    Secularism on its own isn't some sort of Peace Magic, though surely you can see the benefits of having a secular government in terms of fairness and stability?

    Can a human be more compassionate and merciful than God (in your opinion)

    Why is it moral to torture people for their own religious beliefs? Do you not see this for what it really is: a scare tactic? "Conform to our ideology otherwise you will burn in hell".
