re: #815 Obdicut

I thought my points were obvious, I don’t know why you didn’t understand. Why question my choice of words when I was merely using your term? Your other questions are beating up strawmen.

Again this is diverging from the point. I’m glad that we both agree with my main point that animals could evolve similar cognitive features as humans. We also both agree that cognitive functions work differently when added together. I don’t agree that these cognitive functions are independent of each other. IMO, they are emergent features of a brain. But it is a minor point and a diversion.

I guess what I don’t understand is the conclusion you are attempting to draw from “combinatorics matters”. I agree. So what? Are you trying to say that kindness, or whatever, is an emergent feature of all human cognitive functions together and wouldn’t be possible without all of them?
