I guess the divide is that materialists see all belief, thought, speech and action as created in the brain (with which they identify) while those who see humans as spiritual beings view the brain as a complex switchboard subject to modification by the operator.But even materialists would have to acknowledge the effectiveness of neuro-associative conditioning.

"Max... I'm so glad you came to me. I've been through it all myself, you see. Your reality is already half video hallucination. If you're not careful, it will become total hallucination. You'll have to learn to live in a very strange new world. I had a brain tumour. And I had visions. I believe the visions caused the tumour, and not the reverse. I could feel the visions coalesce and become flesh, uncontrollable flesh. But when they removed the tumour, it was called Videodrome . . ." |

An email reply this morning from my friend and I quote: "Very Good but sweetie, you have to realize, you HAVE to have a brain to be a liar." Did you get the same reply too?

I didn't have the nerve to send this article. I'm going to let this sleeping dog lie to maintain my friendship. And I wonder if I'm doing the right thing.
