“not yet understood? Is your position that there’s a mathematical or physical discovery waiting out there, that will cause you, me, Chalmers, and everyone else to slap our heads and say, ‘of course, that’s what the answer is! We should have realized it all along!’”
I would actually suppose something like this. I found this post to be a compelling knockdown of property dualism, and substance dualism is untenable until we (say) observe the pineal gland disobeying the laws of physics because it’s being pushed on by the soul. Practically the only alternative left is that there’s something about physical brains that explains consciousness that we’re just too stupid or ignorant to understand.
Unless there’s some other alternative of which I am too stupid or ignorant to understand.
