What is
consciousness? How is it that we humanoids
are not only aware of our now but also the past and possible futures? Why are we
humanoids able to ask the questions, who am I, who are you? Is the male dog asking
any such questions as he sniffs the behind of any female in his world? Why is
there such a momentous distance or gulf between we conscious humans and all
other forms of life? Does any concept of a mere natural progression provide an adequate
answer to these questions?
If not, what is going on here? If the answer is yes, we are taking the bridge to nowhere, are we not?
