That Consciousness does not depend on the physical laws of the universe and cannot be explained by them either!

This episode wraps up the essays Chris wrote when preparing for starting a podcast way back when. In this one we refute those people who think consciousness emerges from complex electro-chemical activity in the brain. We then provide a topsy-turvy counterexample claiming that the cosmos actually emerges from consciousness. Oh, and we sprinkle in a bunch of interesting facts about the Proto-Indo-European peoples, language and religion.

In this episode Chris continues reading the essays he wrote when first exploring starting a podcast. We talk about the development of the eye from single-celled organisms to our very own peepers; we discuss the phenomenal qualities of our subjective experience that do not seem to be found "in the world," but rather within ourselves. We ask the question: If a tree falls in the forest with no one around to hear it, does it make a sound? And we try to answer it.
