I find it very amusing that you present taking 'multiple university courses' as some kind of argument or credential in favor of the following unshaken belief ("without a doubt"). Did any of your courses teach you to doubt things and especially to question things that you are certain about that clearly a lot of other smart people are not?
- im3w1l 6y agoI'm presenting it solely to demonstrate that I'm not a crank or a schizo. The reason for my firm belief is that just as I can look up and see that the sky is blue, look down to see that the grass is green, just as plainly and immediately can I look inwards and see that I'm conscious. Other smart people believing in emergence is easily explained: They can not see what I see.
