But I don't see the how a quantum mind could be considered a not material mind. I think the quantum computing will be virtually identical to human mind. And this kind of computing seems to be very possible as long the nature itself can use it. It's fascinating to me how the biology can link so close to physics.

Quantum world POSSIBLY affects the macro world
by John_Mann inmigration via quantum mechanicsa perplexing property of quantum mechanics could be allowing birds to see and navigate the planets magnetic fieldsone-fifth of earth's 10,000 bird species migrate over great distances, crossing seemingly insurmountable obstacles as they follow the seasons.. demoiselle cranes fly to altitudes in excess of 20,000 feet as they pass over the himalayan mountains.
the arctic tern travels from pole to pole in pursuit of an endless summer, a distance of some 40,000 miles.. scientists have long speculated that certain animals are making use of magnetic fields to find their way, but biologists are mystified as to how they might do it.. now some answers might be coming from one of the most perplexing interactions in physics.. quantum entanglement dictates that if two electrons are created at the same time, the pair will be entangled so that whatever happens to one particle affects the other.
otherwise, it would violate fundamental laws of physics.. the two particles remain entangled even when separated by vast distances.. http://www.physicscentral.com/explore/action/pia-entanglement1.cfm.

Migration via quantum mechanics
A perplexing property of quantum mechanics could be allowing birds to see and navigate the planet’s magnetic fieldsOne-fifth of Earth's 10,000 bird species migrate over great distances, crossing seemingly insurmountable obstacles as they follow the seasons.
Demoiselle Cranes fly to altitudes in excess of 20,000 feet as they pass over the Himalayan Mountains. The Arctic Tern travels from pole to pole in pursuit of an endless summer, a distance of some 40,000 miles.
Scientists have long speculated that certain animals are making use of magnetic fields to find their way, but biologists are mystified as to how they might do it.
Now some answers might be coming from one of the most perplexing interactions in physics.
Quantum entanglement dictates that if two electrons are created at the same time, the pair will be “entangled” so that whatever happens to one particle affects the other. Otherwise, it would violate fundamental laws of physics.
The two particles remain entangled even when separated by vast distances.

Could our mind be caused by quantum properties too?

Did Life Originate By Chance or Intelligent Design? Or is There a Third Option?
by JimmyPage inwhen discussing the argument of how life originated the wt always boils it down to being chance vs. intelligent design.. no scientist in their right mind believes it happened by chance.
nor do most scientists believe that life is a product of god.. there is a solution that the wt completely ignores and that is... natural selection.. how many here who believe in a creator have honestly examined what natural selection really is?.
(i've been reading "the god delusion" by richard dawkins and was very surprised when i came to the chapter that actually mentions the watchtower society's arguments for intelligent design.

In time, you does not "believe" in science. You believe (or not) in religious dogmas.
In science you must understand something, and after that you must accept or not. There's no believe in science.

The origin of life and the evolution of life are two different things. The evolution theory starts at the first organism capable to copy itself and make some kind of metabolism.
The origin of life copes with chemical evolution. How the inorganic elements turns into organic ones.
While different the two theories follow the darwinian algorithm: heredity, mutation and natural selection.
The chance are the driven force of the mutations and it's not the only factor in the process.
To say the chance is responsible for origin of life or evolution of life it's the same to say a house is built through water.
Of course to build a house you have to add a lot of water in the process, but it's not the water itself that builds the house.
BTW, the final result (the house) contains practically no water used through the construction. It's a factor that is dischargeable.
So, when someone says the chance did something the only answer to that it's to smile before such ignorance.

The first man was born when an ape ate a shroom.
There's a theory about the writing of sacred texts that says they wrote in an organic fashion and after they just pick and choose the best parts to form a relative comprehensive text.
Organic writing can be induced by several ways, one is getting high.

Human Devolution? Interesting Article...
by AGuest inare humans really getting dumber (may you all have peace)?
there have many positions on this for both sides.
saw an announcement on the news this morning and was intrigued: could it be true?

The evolution leads to the fitness to environment. If the environment benefits the dumbers so the dumbers will arise.
Evolution it's not enhancement it's just transformation. Darwin itself never used the word "evolution".

REALITY may not be what you think
by Terry ina counterfeit $100 bill looks virtually the same as a genuine bill.
ask yourself what actual difference exists between them?.
a really good elvis impersonator may look and sound pretty darned close to the real elvis--but, is "close" the same as genuine?.

Maybe we are just a simulation in some super mega quantum computer.
This question only will be fully answered when we can build one to us and see what happens.
The test of knowing if a picture is from a real object or a renderization is basically zooming in and see what the pixels tell to us. If we zoom in the real world we will end in a little bunch of "pixels". Our reality can be computerized.
If it's true, our existence is a little disappointing. It's not like Matrix b/c we have no "real" parts. All we are is a super mega simulation guided by simple laws.
Unless we can find some way to cheat our world computer. That's would be great.

The WT explanation is b/c Jeehovah was giving time to Lord Satan mislead the angels. Was a time for test to the little angels. In 1914 Lord Satan was evicted from heaven to the earth, just like the Silver Surfer.
I think the lesson behind the myth is to portrait Jahoovah as a patient father/boss.

Guys!! Guys!!! Two Jehovah's Witnesses were just at my door!!
by ziddina inand of course, i had some fun with them... an older, brunette woman who obviously dyes her hair and could stand to lose a bit of weight, and a slim blonde teenage girl - probably around 15 - 17.... i started out by asking them if they knew how old the bible was.... .
(and unfortunately, i think i demonstrated that i wouldn't make a very good "undercover" bible study prospect... .
but they didn't even know how old - young - the bible was!!.

My method when they knock at my door is to ask why they don't believe in going to heaven. Then they say something about the 144k and the "great crowd". So I ask to them to read rev. 19:6 and ask to them to confirm this great crowd are the ones who will live in earth. They will say YES. Then ask to them read the rev. 19:1 and ask again where are these "great crowd". Enjoy and have some fun with they responses about it.
