On Consciousness
#47
So as I was laying awake last night I had a thought, related to this idea of the brain as a "quantum antenna". It was, that like the antenna on a radio set, perhaps it could be picking up signals from multiple sources, multiple stations if you will. And no need for it to just operate in "receive-only" mode, eh?

So then, what if the brain is more of a nexus for quantum-level communication between multiple sources?  A place where signals can interact with each other, and the physical world?  And the structure of the gross "neural-net" is merely akin to "client-side rendering" of a webpage, something done to avoid excess communication and place the results closer to where they will play out, not the actual source itself?

My thought was that our brains are a nexus of a conversation, between God, giving us our thoughts and narrative, and pure consciousness, the observer, watching it unfold.  Like a movie -- God operating the projector, our brains the movie screen, and us, pure consciousness sitting in a comfy chair in the audience, thinking that we are what's happening on screen.  God teaching his children by telling them a story of the world.

It's already been shown that what we think of as "our decisions" manifest in our brains hundreds of milliseconds before we think to claim we've "decided" them. https://www.nature.com/articles/nn.2112

No really! I wasn't on drugs!  Smile
