So do we recognise this thing called a "self" or a "subject" or a "person" or a "soul" or an "I" or a whatever as something that is TOTALLY independent of the hosting apparatus?
Why should I put up with the ridiculous notion that my brain secretes my mind which somehow projects my "person"? I don't believe that for one nanosecond. I am only here to enjoy the ride. If it turns out that physical reality is where the buck stops then I am horribly bored by reality. What could possibly be more boring than a bunch of atoms smugly believing that they are "real" and that everything that is, must be made from them? What if I don't want to be made from atoms?
