You are right. I have to ask you exactly that. It would have helped if you could have been more specific. Which one of the quasi-axioms does not met your experience? 1) Do you think it is false to be conscious for a conscious entity? Or 2) Do you think it is false that consciousness is (immediately, without asking an intellectual effort) knowable? Or 3) Do you think it is false that consciousness is not definable (without mentioning truth or god, …) Or 4) Do you think it is false that a conscious entity cannot prove or justify rationally that it is conscious? Or 5) Do you think that something important about consciousness is missing?
