Er, um, salyavin, "unified field" has nothing to do with neuroscience the way physicists intend it (Einstein coined the term). Neuroscience may have recently borrowed it, but that it's a physics term is not something mystics dreamed up; it's just a fact. As to your description of neuroscience's version: As PaliGap asked, Who (or what) is being fooled by this clever sleight of hand? Do your flip responses indicate that you don't have a serious response? It's kind of the $64,000 question, after all.
