 Re: John Searle on Consciousness/Determinism/Free Will
Again, you totally miss the point of my post by posing an agenda that does not address the issues raised; it simply says to me that I'm a dummy. Can we discuss the indertminacy and durabilty issue (nouns and verbs) without such arrogance?

 Re: John Searle on Consciousness/Determinism/Free Will
Ierr,
I don't think in any fashion it is arrogance. But quoting from thirty year old books, when virtually the entirety of physics has changed in that time frame; well, to anyone up on today's information, it just isn't a useful exercise.
When those books were written, quantum entanglement was just mathematical theory. We've actually observed entanglement at this point.
Then add in the enormous leaps of neuroscience/neurology ...
I just don't see what can be said from thirty years ago about these subjects that will have anywhere near the weight of information from brainmapping.org or any of dozen other sites.
Maybe there is something else you're saying, but you'd have to clarify if that is the case, because I can't decipher it out at this point.
