    Originally posted by Enter no, seriously. if they medically removed your brain safely and put it in a new body, you're saying you'd no longer be you?

    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?

    what part of the brain creates consciousness, LSD?

    That's exactly what I'd ask you. Go ahead. Point to it on a diagram.

    Incorrect. Unless you have a super restricted definition of consciousness which no one else in the world agrees with.

    scientists don't know, and I'm guessing you're aware of this.

    but our consciousness is dependent on our brains, not our legs, arms, etc.

    That has nothing to do with consciousness.

    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.

    birds are dinosaurs

    reptiles and dinosaurs close enough right?

    Okay, but this is irrelevant to the discussion.
