The site you link to is very deep. Like an abyss. That you slowly back away from.

Unless, of course, you can actually think.

If you’d rather just hate any new thought, well, that’s also a possibility. And far too much the usual.

Wouldn’t want, you know, to actually explain consciousness with science, rather than the woo concepts, or the essentially dismissive ideas, heretofore espoused, would you?

Something similar has appeared in peer-reviewed literature:

But it seems to leave out a lot, IMO, not to mention being a rather later formulation. Apical dendrites might do it, of course, but I wouldn’t commit to those until I see organization a bit less jumbled than I’ve seen so far (entirely possible). I tend to think it’s where the information is more processed, and the nerves more organized—but probably before the pyramidals largely take over.

The link is just a usual part of my signature, and I didn’t expect it to be much noticed, or commented upon (“leeching”? How dumb is that comment?), though stupid uncomprehending remarks like yours are not unexpected when they do occur (meaningless garbage is easy to spew). I commented as I did because it’s a boring blogpost, and, as others have noted, hardly confined to the right.

Well, so it is, and I really don’t care to bother further with senseless comments such as yours further. I just thought I’d point out how ridiculous your prejudice is, and let it go at that.
