Deep Sight:

Thanks - here you have positively asserted that the brain is NOT the creature. . . the problem then rebounds on you to answer: what is the creature?

Have you ever heard of thought waves?

It comes into play in answering the question: what is the function of the brain? A tool for what. . .or who. . .?

It is said to be attached to the physical at the point of the base of the cerebellum. _{Shhh. . .na secret be that o.}

What are you saying here? . . . .We know where the human "minds" resides, it resides in the brain. . . . Our memories, our personality, everything that "makes" us is contained within that Grey matter in our skulls, It controls all our voluntary and involuntary actions as mentioned by some one here and can be affected by changes to that same Grey matter. I have seen an elderly relative of a friend who slowly faded away over the space of about a 8 years thanks to Alzheimer's disease. How anyone can witness that and still delude themselves that there is such a thing as a "soul" utterly baffles me. Every scrap of evidence shows us that "minds" are contingent upon physical matter and energy. As others have asked where in the body does the soul reside? So far no body has ever detected any thing like the soul any where. . . . .

It seems long before 2097 mr easylogic has already predetermined/concluded the results of such an experiment. . . And aptly declared it a rigid example of how materialism cant explain everything. well done!!
