Belief is behavior

you dont think anything. you arent seeing things in your head. you arent hearing the voices you think you remember. you've never remembered anything.

this is all highly complex BEHAVIOR. your brain behaving in these ways. you are not an insubstantial morphing blob of self awareness. you are just a tube worm with various specialized appendages like every other animals lifeform on this planet..

what you think is awareness, again is just the behavior of many thousands of rapid processes which your receptors are not able to perceive. your sensory input is all synthetic, made from second order neurons, not external stimuli. you memories are invented fresh each time they pass through your mind, nothing but an electro chemical stew comprised of those same synthetic neuro chemicals, simply behaving in similar ways to generate a similar experience to motivate your parasympathetic nervous system.

stop trying to prove things to others. they are just behavior as well. you are not a ghost. there is nothing inside you, your mind is a fake. you dont have any choices, and nor do any one else.
