Original Message
Supernatural:(of a manifestation or event) attributed to some force beyond scientific understanding or the laws of nature.
Consciousness is the ultmate paradox. It is our most intimate experience, yet its existence is a complete mystery and the very definition of supernatural.
Nothing in the laws of physics, chemistry, or biology suggests that it should be there. Although there have been enormous strides in understanding the neurological correlates of consciousness, the various functions in the brain that facilitate it, science still cannot explain in the least what it's doing there in the first place. Although there is no way whatsoever to objectively prove that it exists, even atheists and the most diehard skeptics readily accept its existence.
I find it fascinating that the thing we are most intimately familiar with is also the most mind-blowing. Paradox found.
