Consciousness comes from the brain, when the brain is destroyed, then the consciousness is gone.

I've been wondering this for years.

If you cut a person clean in half, vertically, fast enough, which side would he still be conscious from before the brain processes the cut?

neither. the body would take over the point of consciousness. the same thing as when the brain is crushed immediately. the question of left or right does not figure in at all.

Does not make sense. Please provide support for this claim. How do you know this?

which part of the body other than the brain have the neuron cell to support consciousness?

i think most of the body senses is connected to the nerves system located in the back bone before being channel to brain for processing..

it is like comparing the function of the i/o bus to the CPU, they may be made of the same material but dont have the same function.

since u said splitted into two by a vertical cut, it is certain that the brain stem will b destroyed, then the person wouldnt know what had happened to him.. just like police/swat snipers try to target the brain stem instead other places around the head

yes yes, we know the brain will be destroyed, TS just want to know the nanosecond before losing complete consciousness, which part of the brain are u?

its also like asking what do u see if your eyes are magically placed at separate sides of your head.

i wouldn't say the bone, but i know there's a part behind your head/neck that does some quick reflexes that doesn't require permission from the brain to command parts of the body to move... forgot the name...

and i'm not sure if this one would be the correct answer

knowledge is tangible, explainable. Supreme understanding is not neccessarily so. Either u learn from me, or u choose not to. I'm not here to convince anybody.

Now u may think this is a joke, but what prove do u have that consciousness or awareness originate from a neuron cell?

So you come here to spread your brand of religion? LOL

You have your conscience up in my ass and now you have consciousness in somebody's penis. You are so obsessed with vulgarities I wonder what kind of religion that you intend to start.
