David The usual problem. I recognize my consciousness and my intelligence, and I have to assume you possess the same. I assume you control your thoughts as I do. -In the everyday vernacular I have more than my fair share of intelligence and I can only suppose an average share of consciousness.-But then when I use this supposed intelligence and consciousness I find cracks in these concepts, not just intellectually speaking but in actual practice.-If I look carefully I can find myself confabulating my supposed intelligence and consciousness. -Again for me, everything is conscious or nothing is conscious ... they are two sides of the same immaterial coin.
