    Call me sceptical, but I have two issues to get over first.

    1) We are still struggling to understand what consciousness means/is, so anything written/thought about it is very much in the realms of a *postulates*; and,

    2) The discourse on the subject is Euro-centric and leaves other major civilisations aside.

    Disclosure: I know nothing about the subject of your masto conversation. But it doesn’t indicate a lack of interest.

    If I’m budding in and it’s bothersome, just tell me off… nicely please.

    Do you have a citation for that first quotation? It would be very useful.

    (Franz Brentano wrote about this at length, but I didn't know Clemens did.)
