you replied with a joke because you just realized you're wrong.
I mean, I said one simple thing, and you extrapolated a whole bunch of extra shit and are telling me that's what I said. How can I be wrong if I never even said that?
Do you not think that your body is also part of "you"? -

my body is mine, but it's not what I am.
I am a brain.
you actually made a good point that defends my side, hilariously enough. once the brain dies, I'm not longer "me". but for example, if my leg is removed in a freak accident because I'm a stupid fucking junkie retard with a fat wife, I'm still "me". -

But aren't you more your consciousness than just your brain? -

I don't pretend to know. None of us do. But there isn't really any reason to believe with any certainty that the brain creates it. If anything, it enhancements it down into a human perspective. -

well, you've slightly changed my opinion in terms of thinking about possibilities, but that's like me admitting there's a possibility god exists. -
