That does not follow either for if we are purely bio-electrical then we can not have beliefs. Strawman? What? Programming languages running on turing machines

Strawman? What?
Programming languages running on turing machines are abstract entities, they only exist in your mind, not in reality. The physical machine just shuffles electrons around.
Abstract Thought -> Symbolic Representation -> Physical Implementation.
The right hand side is not the left hand side. Any right hand side implements an infinite left hand sides and there is no way for you to pick out the correct one simply from the physics. I have never written the word representation before in this exchange, yet you claim i have. Stop doing that.
You wont get it. This is a standard part of philosophy of mind. Look it up.
