But you're going to try to rationalize continuing, because you intend
to continue despite the fact that the rationalizations are irrelevant
and post-hoc to the decision to continue.

That does not logically follow, but it would have certainly resulted
in your not posting.

That most definitely does not logically follow. The superordinate and
subordinate clauses are unrelated.

} Let me know
If you could understand it (i.e. if argumentation would actually serve
any purpose other than mere existential signalling of "Human here!
Human here!"), it would not be a diety. If X were a diety, no amount
of argumentation would serve to clarify anything, because the human
mind is incapable of understanding it. In short, of all possible
wastes of time as fgar as arguing on the internet, this argument is
the worst.
As for consciousness, it is a function of mind.
Mind is a verb. It is what brain does.
Ask me again, using consciousness as a verb.
But don't expect me to notice.
