The Move Away From Materialism

[Satans_Serrated_Edge]

I completely agree, which is why I can't accept materialism as it cannot even suggest mechanism and is plagued with philosophical shortcomings.



Materialism actually requires more assumptions, such as that the brain creates the mind without the slightest insight as to how. I've already leveled numerous of these issues at you which you've entirely refused to address.



So we know everything the brain does, but we don't see how it creates consciousness, yet we should accept it anyways? Don't pretend you're interested in truth or soundness lol.

Well, I guess that's that then. If these "problems" of materialism(which reads exactly like another favourite, the 'god of the gaps ' theory) are so insurmountable to you that you would completely abandon everything we (collectively, mankind) have learned about everything up till this point in favour of a completely unevidenced hunch, that's your prerogative. Since rational argumentation won't suffice, I am unsure how to continue.

How objective!

Not at all. It's opinion.

I just provided evidence and argument, genius.

Do you really believe you have done either of those things? Interesting.
