Where do you think common sense, emotional intelligence, creativity, etc. come from? The spirit? Some magic brain juice? No, it comes from neurons, synapses, signals, chemicals, etc.
- cynicalpeace 2y agoIt comes from billions of years of evolution, the struggle to survive and maintain your body long enough to reproduce. "Neurons, synapses, signals, chemicals" are downstream of that.
