Point blank: Is consciousness a physical thing or not?
I was thinking about immortality a moment ago and it came to me that all one would need is to prolong consciousness in some form to be immortal or closer to it. But what part of the body contains or secretes this thing known as consciousness? (beacuse that is the only part you would have to rejuvinate and keep alive and also potentially replace!)
None, you say?
Well I find that prett fascinating. If the body creates it that should be testable.... I am talking about self awareness here. That sense. Not the others they knock off with a twitch of the brain in an open skull. I would think it is common knowledge to know the basic makeup of what we term consciousness; of awareness, thought, judgement, emotion, etc.
