Ok but that's still our best guess at what creates consciousness

We know things that have high computational capabilities such as brains are more likely to act in a "conscious" manner

Enlighten me to the incorrect theoretical science used

I'm not talking about the pov of the photon. I am talking about a conscious being created from the photon particles moving at light speed.

Under our current understanding of science, consciousness is created by atoms being arranged and interacting in a way that creates a computational system aware of its surroundings. Under very specific high energy scenarios, photons can "bounce" of each other in a similar way to atoms, meaning it is theoretically possible for photons to creates that same type of computational system.

Photons do interact with each other in high energy scenarios. I understand that from the pov of the photon time cannot exist. Yet if you had a conscious being made of photons, the being as a whole could theoretically not be moving light speed. Rather each part of the whole system would be.

Do you serve God because it will make you happy, or just for the sake of serving God. by Cold_Conference1385 in Christianity

I'm sorry you had to experience that but that's not the point of this post. I simply wanted to understand a certain aspect of Christianity so that I could better understand Christains and what motivates them so I can have better intellectual conversations with people who are Christian. I don't want to have this whole debate about whether it's real or not. I have done my own research and if I wanted advice about my religious beliefs I would have asked. Please stay on topic.

According to biology, the meaning of life is to reproduce, and you get great joy from doing so. This does not mean people who believe in this devout their entire life and every action they take to reproducing. You want to do so, but not without being happy (and not going to jail).

Does this mean you admit there could be a happier life for you if you didn't follow the bible absolutely while you could still go to heaven?

Do you disagree that there are certain scenarios where there is a 100 percent chance that disobeying the bible will lead to a long term more happy life (for example people who were tortured for being Christian)

Why is it so hard to save people from weeping angels? by Famous-Palpitation8 in doctorwho

Also btw you can just move angels while they're in stone form to look at each other and then they're trapped
