Heart vs Mind - What Makes Us Human
by ballistic inhttp://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01kpvj1/heart_vs_mind_what_makes_us_human/.
i was watching this bbc iplayer programme on heart and mind, (which is well worth a watch if you can access where you are).
and despite how the programme starts out, it develops into a deep and touching discussion of what makes us human.. i personally was left with the feeling at odds with what i believed as a witness.

Atheism and Theism are only partly right!
by abiather intoday we know that matter and energy are interchangeable, hence they are there always in either form, they are eternal, hence requires no creator.
hence atheism is right in rejecting a creator, but failed in providing any motivation for people to do good.
religions, in their effort to provide a motivating factor for humans to do good, introduced creation stories and other myths; hence they too are right (as far as their intention is concerned), yet failed in producing any worthy resultsworld was steadily moving from bad to worse and from worse to worst!.

I am responding to your question, with my own reasoning. Which comes from my brain, a very human thing to do , don't you think?
Are you convinced by this video? What about your own reasoning?.You are human after all.

Ballistic, you are moving into the realms of unrealistic!.The worm is not human!! And chopping of bits of the brain to leave a ceratain part of the brain? Now with respect you are bordering on the ridiculous .you will eventually come to the conclusion, we are human because of our brain no matter how many permutations (no pun intended)you come up with .Best wishes to you.

Jgnat, you need repeat no more.I agree about intuition(instinctive knowledge)
Ballistic, you understand by 'heart' you are referring to emotion .
Both are reliant on the BRAIN! THEREFORE BRAIN (mind) WINS.
If you disagree, on which part of the body do we rely on for these?

What is the point of the thermostat?.it is a switch senitive to heat /cold it is to operate the main function eg a boiler. The point is which is the main function which gives the desired outcome .The boiler, how the boiler is switched on is of no great importance the important thing is the boiler sensing the call for its operation. So for boiler read brain.for sensory read reaction. So the thermostat reacts to the temperature the boiler reacts to the thermostat which is only a trigger for the main event.
The question is heart vs mind what makes us human?
There is no awareness of emotion without the brain so mind wins ..In my humble opinion of course.

Nevertheless it's all within the brain. Did we get there in the end? Best wishes to you.

Jgnat. Yes I agree its how we use our brains, but you'll agree the brain had to develop to be used.
The bats brain developed in much the same way , but the evolutionary differences make it a bat.
The brain is the receiver correct, why ? Because it is the primary organ which receives the signals, lets call them sub sensors if you like but they are switches in the circuiratery? Sense . The brain receives these signals as you say the receiver. In order to recieve with the objective of reacting the brain must make sense of the signal hence sensory(of the sences) Sensor:...device which detects or MEASURES the presence of something. The signals for the receiver do not do the measuring that is the brains function. Therefore it follows, by definition it must be the main sensor. Analogy ...if you stub your toe and feel pain what tells you the pain is from the toe rather than the finger? Its the brain sensing the signal from that area. It is the interruption of the break in the nerve circuitry in that area which the brain senses and then we feel the pain its all down to the brain .
