What makes us us?

[Darkel]

Let's be real, there's no such things as souls... There aren't these individual and unique things attached to us called "souls".

Our brain is who we are... And we are only conscious because of some brain connections in our head... The same brain connections anyone could have.

So when you're dead and gone... life don't stop and people are still alive and experiencing things.. why can't you be them?
I mean obviously you can't experience their life cos you are you... But what differences does it make to being you experiencing your life in first person, and them experiencing their life... When we all the same (just brain connections and wires)
Do you get what I'm trying to say?
What makes us "us" and experience the life we do?
When we're not unique in what makes us conscious (brain connections). The same connections any person can have... You get what I'm trying to say?

This is why don't fear death... I may die but life will never stop and people will still be experiencing things... Even if it ain't me... it's like it is.. in a way... If you understand what I'm trying to explain here...

We all came from the same black nothingness so what differentiates their spot of nothingness to the same spot of nothing we was dealt before birth? You get me?

I think you have to be intelligent or really think deeply about what I'm saying here to understand what I mean

Well simply what our brain believes and doesn't believe is what makes us, "us". Just like you say there are no souls, that means you brain believes that, while someone else regardless of what you say to them will still believe that we DO have souls.

I can say something to 5 people and every one of them will interpret what I said in different ways. their brains understood it in different ways. That's what makes person number one different from person number 2 and so on.

True lol. But pre birth you could have either been born with a smart brain or a dumb one so you could have ended up as any person if you understand what I'm trying to say... Their experiences could also be yours...

[Darkel]

Actually nevermind, I'm not sure I'm even making sense lol

[Киттйлинк]

dumb and smart are not how one is born it is what you do with your brain while we are alive that will determine that. Anyone can change how they are, someone can easily feel determined to focus on something and excel at it, which will make them seem "smarter" in that particular thing more than another person who is not savvy of that particular thing.

Also regardless of what you and me believe about if there are souls or not, it really will not matter in the end, if it's true or if it's false, our believe will be irrelevant when we die and see the truth... but we can't come back and tell someone that it is or isn't true. What is true is true regardless of what we believe or regardless of what proof we have that it is or isn't

I don't know. It's like asking when was the beginning of time or If there is a size of the Universe, what's outside of that? We're just people either trying to make it or fighting against other or lavishly throwing benjamins in the air. Yeah and others.

Get your ill educated, cynical ass, outta here, kiddo. You've got nothing much to say on the matter.

How can brain connections make us conscious?
