Conventional scientists don't believe in mind, free will or consciousness

There is no evidence of quantum phenomenon in the brain. It is too large, too moist and too warm.

Yeah well....some expert on the topic was interviewed about that.

His dialog showed up on a recent science program.

He likes the idea.

How are we defining "quantum phenomena"?
Quantum mechanics works at the atomic level... it's hard to believe that the mechanics covering atomic interactions are not present in our brains. :shrug:

As for scientists ignoring the mind and consciousness and thinking that we are all unthinking robots... that is total bunk. :facepalm:

Thief is presumably talking about the "weird" bits of QM, like entanglement, and wave-like behavior. I don't think it's possible for them to have any significant effect on the brain's thinking, because the brain is warm, wet and comparatively large, all of which usually collapse QM waveforms.
