RE: A Speculative Case for Eternal Life

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

consciousness as a noun refers to: "the state of being aware of and able to think, perceive, and experience" - which we typically correlate to 'living'.

unconsciousness also exists.

both are states of the essence of self/god.

in my way of parsing reality, you are grappling with existence and calling it consciousness.

"...we..."

What we call unconsciousness isn't not being aware and able to think. It's simply being non-responsive. It is well proven our minds are active during periods of 'unconsciousness'. A lot of our apparent disagreements are at least exacerbated by the very poor language we use to describe consciousness, likely because we have no idea what it actually is.
