CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING:
With billions of brain cells and trillions of brain cell connections, how exactly does an energy signal 'know' where and when to start, what path to take, and where and when to stop to form a coherent thought? Obviously it does, but how exactly does it do it?
As an analogy, spread a brain out like a map. The brain cells are represented by towns and cities. The brain cell interconnections are represented by roads and highways. A coherent thought is represented by a vehicle traveling between one or more towns and/or cities.
How exactly does the vehicle 'know' where and when to start, what path to take, and where and when to stop to form a coherent trip? A higher intelligence has to tell it those things. But that would be a coherent trip in and of itself, or in the case of the brain, a coherent thought in and of itself.
So....., how exactly does our brain think a thought before it thinks that thought? What exactly is the 'higher intelligence' behind our very thoughts? If inside of our brain, where is it and how exactly does it do what it does? If outside of our brain by some mechanism, where is it, how exactly does it do what it does, and why? If we don't even consciously think our very own thoughts, because some other force is thinking them before we consciously think them, then how could any human be responsible for their own conscious thoughts when it would appear that humans don't actually have any?
Or so I currently think, if it is even "I" who is doing the thinking, and typing this comment.
Am "I" truly just space time interacting with itself?
