Err no.

First of all look at the time stamps on these things. My recent posting was made after these comments. OK, only a day later - but it was a big day.

Secondly, my post does not say materialism must be wrong - at least in terms of creating consciousness. I think for the reasons given above that it probably is wrong, but I wouldn't say "must". I don't think a materialistic view of the brain / consciousness is incompatible with Christianity either (after a rather extensive discussion with Mr [livejournal.com profile] toothycat who more or less sees us as AIs).
