I guess you didn't even read my other post.
We agree on the bolded part
But, you have to look at all available evidence and observations and the psi evidence is typically ignored. I don't think it's stupid to study how far the brain is responsible for consciousness, but I do think it's stupid to not investigate evidence that strongly suggests to some extent the brain is not responsible.
I think that perhaps we will end up with a model where consciousness is partly brain based, and partly fundamental to the universe. The former is supported by brain injury changing behaviour and personality. The latter by psi, and GCP data. Plus, if QM is holistic, and in Zeilinger's words "we are not just passive observers...we have a much more active roll than we normally think", then there must be something about mind and matter that is very similar, perhaps the same. Or perhaps, and at this point I advocate something I don't accept, that matter is subordinate to mind (idealism)
