Not my favorite.....a bit disappointing actually....Knowing Salix virtual a little, I think it might be vegetables.
What, in your worldview, remains?
What will you experience, if anything, after your physical form ceases to function?
I think we can all agree that our physical form as we currently experience it will at one point fall away, whether suddenly, by disease, or system failure in old age. Our body/mind complex is temporary.
What, in your worldview, remains? What will you experience, if anything, after your physical form ceases to function? Will the experience be animated? Inert? Without the senses of the body/mind, what can you experience? Many speak of seeing their relatives after they die. How does one see without eyes? Hear without ears? Smell without a nose? Taste without a mouth? Touch (feel) without nerve endings?
What, if anything, do you experience?
And please be specific. Anyone who simply answers "God" will be locked in the staff lounge and whipped with a wet noodle.
Hang on, not all crap margarine is crap.Only if it's real butter. None of that margarine crap.
Took me some time to develop the taste for it, and become a bit creative with the veggies, but I appreciate them much more nowNot my favorite.....a bit disappointing actually....

Mushrooms give a great taste, and adding some garlic or vinegar makes a big difference. Tomatoes with some sweet/garlic/ginger is great too
The picture looks already "yummy", and all ingredients visible and easily available, I will give it a try.This vegetable broth isn't bad, and it's readily available.
I believe our consciousness experience ends once our bodily avatar in The Simulation "dies" - i.e. ceases being alive. And that once this happens we stop being aware. Of anything.What, in your worldview, remains?

By experience being inputted into one's consciousness by other means, i.e. not via sense data: to produce certain kinds of experienceHow does one see without eyes? Hear without ears? Smell without a nose? Taste without a mouth? Touch (feel) without nerve endings?

Two things. First of all, no, science does not tells us this. Consciousness is considered "The Hard Problem of Consciousness", in which science does not make any sort of scientific proclamation about it. It does not conclude, nor teach scientifically that consciousness is reduced to brain function alone. They really don't know, though plenty speculate their pet ideas. At this stage, they are personal hypothesis, but not really confirmed with hard data, therefore "science" is not telling us what science has confirmed.Science tells us that the consciousness of man is experienced in the brain.....the place where all our senses are interpreted. Without a brain there is no mind, no consciousness and no human life.
First, we need to be more precise. When the body ceases to function, so does the BRAIN. But the brain is not the MIND. The mind is the metaphysical phenomenon that the brain generates, and we are not entirely certain what all this entails.I think we can all agree that our physical form as we currently experience it will at one point fall away, whether suddenly, by disease, or system failure in old age.

I'm guessing that's not a good thing.For people like you, we make you listen to @Sunstone's singing.
First, we need to be more precise. When the body ceases to function, so does the BRAIN. But the brain is not the MIND. The mind is the metaphysical phenomenon that the brain generates, and we are not entirely certain what all this entails.
Materialists are quite certain that the "mind" is a kind of experientially generated fiction. That it does not "really exist". Such that when the brain stops generating this experiential fiction, the question of it existing is moot. And this may be so. But it may also not be so.
The flaw in this assumption is in considering the mind a "fiction", rather than a metaphysical REFLECTION of physical reality, within physical reality. Kind of like a shadow. It's not a "fiction" in that it is a real thing existing in the real world even though it exists as a caused response to other physical phenomena. The shadow of a tree is not a tree. But nor is it a "fiction". So that even when the falls and rots away, and that specific shadow ceases, the 'shadow world' in which it had been manifest, remains. And the same is true of the mind. Our specific configuration of it may cease when our brain ceases to function, but the reality of it while we live, and the reality of the meta-physicality in which it occurs is REAL. It exists. And it remains extant even after our specific participation in it has ceased.
Collectively, for one. When the tree dies the tree's shadow is no more. And yet the 'shadow-world' in which it existed still exists, and still contains many other similar and different shadows. And those shadows, like the tree's, are all as "real" as the tree, itself.If the brain generates the mind, how can the mind continue on after the death of the brain?

My beliefs come from Vedic, Theosophical and other wisdom traditions.I think we can all agree that our physical form as we currently experience it will at one point fall away, whether suddenly, by disease, or system failure in old age. Our body/mind complex is temporary.
