I know other people are not robots... are you suggesting you have doubts?

I think a more logical example is the movie 'The 13th Floor.' Great flick. Or the matrix? Those are possibilities, but... until we have some proof of those realities, I will stick with the one I know. Do I deny outright that we do not live in the matrix? No... anything is possible, but to put any credence into such ideas is pointless stupidity. For now our reality is the natural world we know.

"I know other people are not robots"

If you "know" something to be the truth, prove it.

You intimated that you don't believe in the supernatural / extra-natural.

That means that you believe that a mind is "natural" and as such can be proven by science. So I'll ask you again:

Please EXPLAIN __HOW__ YOU KNOW that other people besides yourself have a mind, and that they aren't just pre-programmed robots?

Please don't deflect my question by attempting to make me the subject again this time like you did in your previous reply. Your inexplicable reference to a movie you saw once is also an illogical non sequitur that has nothing to do with my question.
