[quote=Embracing]It's really the whole "If a tree fell in a forest and no one was there to hear it, did the tree actually fall in the forest" argument. I'm very much for "The tree actually did fall" side of the argument. American politics are pretty sad[/quote]

[quote=Searz][quote=Embracing] It's really the whole "If a tree fell in a forest and no one was there to hear it, did the tree actually fall in the forest" argument.[/quote] Well, of course it is..

The other side of the argument are twisting fact and logic around consciousness, which is just silly. These are the kinds of things people go to mental hospitals for..
