Your arrogance is staggering. Is science not also a form of philosophy?

Sure, 200 years ago when they called it 'natural philosoply', but the advent of the scientific method is what transitioned it away from pretty words and feelings to concrete observable, recordable data.

If you can't see the difference, you aren't worth wasting electrons on.

s not a scientific ‘fact’ that your consciousness will do anything at all,

Oh but it is my friend and the wonderful thought experiment that is the game SOMA can make that clear to you, if you are capable of understanding it.

Every examination of cranial and nerve damage in relation to consciousness has made it pretty clear that whatever it is that is our self-awareness is tied to the fat and nerves in our skull, and when disturbed often have drastic results on our cognition, awareness, and sense of self. These are things we have been documenting for centuries. Damage the brain, damage the consciousness. And to a lesser extent the spine but that is still fringe.

Our consciousness isn't anything special phenomenologically, it consists of complex interactions yes but there is no non-material aspect of it other than what we experience as our cognition, which is not an actual space but rather the results of our self-modifying chemical cascade.

What you think of as arrogance is rather the result of spending decades both in a scholarly frame as well as for personal pleasure studying biology, physics, and psychology. I'm sorry that up until now your main conversation group has consisted of people who think communications in excess of 144 characters is mentally draining.
