Human thinking is a soulish activity, which is influenced both by bodily forces and spiritual forces. The first human had both soul and spirit life, as did the second Adam, but all others only after faith in Christ.

A machine cannot mimic human thinking. A machine is can only do what it’s been programmed to do, by a human. The thinking occurred before it was installed into the machine.

While knowledge increases Wisdom is wanting.Yes, there is a difference between the two. I know some really intelligent people who voted for the Obungler, so knowledge does not guarantee critical thinking.

You’re right, I should have said, “human behavior,” rather than “human thinking.”

Human behavior is not divorced from the brain, and the brain still does the thinking which controls human behavior.
Even the most minute of human behaviors is controlled by the brain, and no AI computer can even begin to match anything that a human brain can do.

No, but there is no obvious logical limit to the kinds of human behaviors that machines may some day imitate. Look at the robots that move and balance like animals, or Siri, for example. It was once the stuff of far-off science fiction.

There is not a single human behavior that a machine can imitate today, or even in the future. Remember that, whatever a machine "does", was already programmed into it, and "it" is an inanimate object.
Human behavior denotes emotions, and emotions cannot be "copied" and installed into a piece of hardware.
