It doesn’t mention the word ‘unique’ once in that article.
Nor the word ‘conscious’.
I have a hard time believing it says ‘pretty much the same things’ if it’s not even using similar language.
Nobody said anything about consciousness not relating to sensory data.
This is the problem: you’re making a total nonsequitur. You’re still making a total nonsequitur the same as you were the first time you brought up uniqueness.
Now, I’m not arguing about whether or not consciousness arises in a fetus, or earlier, or later.
I’m not arguing about whether or not people or their minds are unique.
I’m arguing that your incredible leap of logic, going from “Consciousness arises in a fetus” to “therefore every mind is unique” is nonsensical. It’s a total nonsequitur.
And now, the leap is “Reaction to the data is phenomenal, and that makes each mind unique.” It’s just as nonsensical as the other leap in logic.
You’ve spent a lot of words trying to explain how uniqueness follows, but you haven’t explained anything.
An explanation takes us from point A to point Z, by going through all the intermediate steps.
You’ve gone through no intermediate steps.
Eg I say, “I got a text from Angelica, that means she’s at the zoo.”
If you don’t know Angelica, or anything about our situation, that might seem like a nonsequitur.
So, in order to explain it to you how I go from “Angelica texted me” to “she’s at the zoo,” I say, “Oh, Angelica told me she’d text me right when she gets to the zoo and not before.”
And now my logic makes a lot more sense.
You haven’t connected A and Z yet, at all. You haven’t connected the statements “Consciousness starts in the fetus” and “every mind is unique.” You haven’t connected the statement “Reaction to data is phenomenal” and “every mind is unique.” You’re just stringing sentences together and hoping some of them make sense. That’s not really a good method for making sense.
