@AmericanReform_ This clown goes wherever the wind carries the smell of $$$.

This is Dr. Taylor Marshall on his show in 2021. I want to know, does he still stand by this thesis and, if so, who would be at the head of this “false church”? “What we saw in the 1960s and 1970s, what I believe, of course you can read my book on it… Satan was introduced into the bosom of the Church and… some kind of a false church has been introduced.”

@skdh @StuartHameroff It explains absolutely nothing. Consciousness isn't a physical item. And we all know this, even if we don't quite know how to articulate it.

@StuartHameroff pretty much every cell in the human body contains microtubules, so why then isn't my kidney conscious? I don't see what your "theory" is explaining

Sabine I agree with your criticism of nuclear spin in Posner clusters as bullshit. But I call bullshit on your claim that quantum consciousness in general is bullshit. The brain is 70% water but the other 30% includes nonpolar, oil-like regions inside biomolecules including microtubules. There, aromatic rings which are the basis for organic chemistry and life, support warm temperature quantum optical effects. We showed anesthetics dampen quantum processes in microtubules at warm temperature pubs.acs.org/acscii/article… and academic.oup.com/nc/article/202… and pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28852014/ As you point out nobody has ever seen a Posner cluster in the brain. However the most prevalent protein in the brain, including yours, is tubulin, the component protein in microtubules. More than anything else your brain is made of microtubules. Mine too. And inside microtubules, quantum coherence reigns.

@butforwales @RxOnlyFL @ChristandGuitar There's this pervasive myth that legalistic and formalistic order necessarily makes Catholicism "more true" than other Christian factions. But how?

@RxOnlyFL @ChristandGuitar

Both the Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church claim to be the "one true Church." Both say private interpretation is insufficient to determine truth in matters of faith and morals. Both require submission to their respective magisterium. Both claim apostolic succession. So here’s my question: If both make the exact same claims, and we’re told we cannot use personal judgment or interpretation to decide which is true, how are we supposed to know which one to submit to? Both cannot be right if there's only one "true Church."
