FB you are always involved in a fight! You're far from the only one though .
I'll post only here till I'm satisfied that I've come to a conclusion or are no longer wondering .
I'm sorry for anyone that I've drove crazy but now at least unless people visit my thread they won't be bored .
So I'm interested to see what the universe will do.
I mean yes without free will the I we imagine won't be as it's generally appreciated but could there still be an I of sorts?
I suppose consciousness is the same .
And yet it's different .
I mean yes if our bodies are damaged and we become unconscious we don't experience anything . Causality.
But the consciousness we have , we all have. It doesn't change does it? The awareness .
This noticing happens our entire lives and we can all accept perhaps that this consciousness is generic. My consciousness is your consciousness .
So this is the question. Am I consciousness? If so then I think it's probable that it's we are consciousness rather than I.
I wonder if consciousness is in anyway combined. I think Jung wondered that too .
Certainly as we communicate we affect the consciousness of each other .
Have you ever heard of trees that release things into the atmosphere to fall onto other things? I'm not very smart.
It just occurs to me that sometimes there is a pattern between life forms that's all.
I m having trouble enough as it is with just one universe... I just could not handle the multiverse.
He makes the point that the laws of nature in this universe are extremely improbable in that they lead to life . His conclusion is there are many many universes without life .
I think his assertion is reasonable . After all who could have imagined how much the universe we have has within it?
It feels like the same thing doesn't it?
Let's imagine for a moment that consciousness isn't us, not really us.
For me it's perfectly easy to imagine that our thoughts and feelings and behaviours aren't us.
After all if someone punches me in the face I think how dare you , I feel angry, I punch them back. All causality. A simple example.
But abandoning the idea that consciousness = I . That's something that's interesting to look at. To me anyway.
My own feeling is that nature is about accident. Coincidence .
And yet it's clear if we see a car heading towards us we move .
I suppose that this consciousness thing changes things.
It's hard to argue everything is an accident when there is clearly design in our behaviour .
