What’s odd is what Ricky says about a meta brain not existing is probably in fact exactly what’s happening in terms of higher levels of consciousness. It’s just that there is an illusion that consciousness is restricted to the brain.

Ricky studied philosophy and Smerch loves the Smiths (does the body rule the mind or does the mind rule the bodyyyyy…). Of course they know he’s making a good point - they just keep pressing to get the best out of Karl. If Karl had actually gone to school imagine how powerful he’d be.

Reminds me of: Ricky: "Who am I talking to right now, you or your brain?" Karl: "Right now it's... me, I think." Ricky: "Are you going to get your brain involved at some point?"

I love the way Karl is often not far off a decent philosophical argument- this is close to the classic “mind-body problem” of Cartesian dualism that philosophers have been pondering for years. He’s not dumb at all but there is always just some important part of his whole point that doesn’t make sense

Interesting about his comments about how dumbed gown US politics was over a decade ago. Today I saw a 'rap performance' with Marjorie Taylor-Greene seated on a golden throne. In the clip, the singer called her "our most MVP" whilst bodyguards pushed back men in suits meant to represent Democrats. A five-year-old could do better, but this is the new normal.

I think the thing karl is having trouble articulating is that we are not necessarily a brain but we are a conciseness that is predominantly operating in a small area of the brain, the rest of the brain is responsible for controlling our body and supplying information to the conscious mind. In the instance with the onion a series of memories triggered Karl's mind to become aware that he had forgotten it

Intellectual honesty leads us to non-conceptual knowledge of God (in “the cloud of unknowing”). Meditation is the contemplation of ultimate reality through negation...’not this, not that’ (stop thinking)...in the acknowledgement and the experience of the ineffable nothing (“no thing”); off the rails of linear thought; beyond conceptual limitations and their symbolic representations. All religions are just fingers pointing. The Religious tend to suck the fingers rather than get to their point? Getting to the point is the experience of what “IS”...the eternal NOW-OF ITSELF, SO. This, Alan Watts called, “the supreme experience.” Atheists are correct. There’s no naming God (unnameable, per Lao Tzu) as no one exists outside of eternity to hang a name on it-All IS GOD... in a polarity of inseparable opposites (yin & yang). All that exists is the flip side of non-existence (no thing)...like matter and the space that contains it. The invisible knows Itself by the visible...immortal by mortal...life by death...male by female...light by dark...ones by zeros etc... As nothing exists outside of “God,” all that exists must be God-manifestations (incarnations) : God/not god simultaneously. Like a wave is/is not the entire ocean.

Some of the "facts" here are true, but many others not. Bill Maher lived in an era where the gender relations were disconnected; primarily due to a lack of sex education, not the physical aspects, but how genders should relate to each other from childhood.His views of women have evolved from such an era and his perceptions are based on a jaundiced environment. Women only recently have gained recognition as individuals, many myths continue to surround them.

So, what karl was saying makes complete sense. Your central nervous system and your system communicates. Your stomach tells you, you are full after 30 minutes or so, it takes up to 5 hours to tell your brain it has enough water in its system to stay hydrated. Cravings of the body come at its time.... Low carbs can manifest itself as THIRST and so on. So you arent in control, but its the subconsious that is in control in tandem of your bodily needs.

What's up with atheists? Do they seriously believe that death must be the end? What if our consciousness can be transfered via electromagnetic fields for example? Through time and into another body at a later date? I don't find anything non-atheistic about that. And regarding spiritual experience. I believe that this is the purpose of life. That the purpose is simply to express yourself however you wish. I've been trying to find out the purpose of life and everything else have failed
