In yesterday's exercise into the lunacy of materialist-atheism (I could have gotten into the Churchlands and the likes of Daniel Dennett) I didn't point out the exquisite accuracy the materialist idea-making mechanism in our brains would have to have. If an idea is the product of a physical structure in our brain, most commonly imagined to be based in some specifically made protein (especially by those who magically chant "DNA") then in order for an idea to have coherence across the human population, our brains would have to make anything from roughly the same structure to very much the same structure, without any communication with other brains on what that structure should be, I would say in the case of very finely differentiated ideas, such as those found in mathematics and advanced science, the assumption they would have to be the product of virtually identical and, at least at the start, unique physical structures is a reasonable one. Any difference in physical structure would have to result in a different idea being held, I doubt that any two brains could contain exactly the same concept of anything.
How our brains know how to make such totally unprecedented structures and for them to come out the same in very different brains with quite different ambient physical conditions (EXPRESSED IN IN RADICALLY DIFFERENT LANGUAGES WITH GREATLY DIFFERENT GRAMMATICAL STRUCTURES! for a start) is just another and higher hurdle for this ubiquitously held, ridiculous article of atheist faith to have to jump over.
When you really start to think about it, the idea quickly becomes no better than the most crude articulation of magical thinking, considering how often it would have to happen in each of billions of human beings every day, all day and night, the magical world of materialist-atheism makes the make-believe world of Harry Potter look like stark realism. Considering the whole thing starts out with them wanting to diminish the character of human consciousness based on their materialism, the whole thing devolves into an incredibly unacknowledged and unconscious animism.
