You do know we can’t measure consciousness either right? But we still know it happens, it’s the only thing we can know for sure happens because we’re all experiencing it right now.

We still don’t know a lot about how the brain works, and again, it’s pretty weird that this is universe that recycles everything except consciousness: Matter and energy cannot be destroyed, they only change form.

Ever look into NDEs? Weird stuff, they thought it was just oxygen deprived hallucinations, but then they keep finding very specific and powerful brain activity after the patient is declared dead that suggests something is going on in a big way. Something much bigger than neurons randomly firing in an attempt to reignite the brain, the brain’s ignited like never before despite the fact that it should be dead. They also keep finding that Near Death Experiences are so damn universal that for the weird magic sounding stuff to be a hoax, then hundreds of thousands of people would have to have been in on it since the dawn of man.

Never assume that science knows everything. Not because “Religion has all the answers”, but because science is not a religion, it’s not a big book that you can just find answers in. It’s an on-going process of questioning everything and then going “That’s funny, that shouldn’t be happening.” right before learning about a new set of questions to ask.

It’s actually really beautiful.

Update: Oh yeah Information can’t be destroyed either, not even by a black hole… and you really think Conciousness is the one exemption?
