I think most people who offer opinions and make arguments on social media act as tho they are pretty confident about them. I'm not sure you'd be able to measure a difference in 'aura of expertise' between Dawkins and the plumber. https://twitter.com/alexsimonelis/status/971201731324506114 …

1/ And that’s where your biology is wrong and gets ideological. The truth is that, so far, biology or any other science actually, is totally unable to understand what consciousness is. Your science is a science for robots. It would perfectly explain a robot’s functionning.

2/ And a robot can perfectly function without ever knowing what the color blue is, or the smell of a rose. You don’t « need » it. And you cannot provide that info to a robot because no one knows how to. Wavelength of light is just a figure, it contains absolutely no info on color

3/ Problem is: the only reality we, humans, know is via our perceptions. Ie the mere things science doesn’t get to explain. Of course, that simple, factual observation contradicts the scientist dogma most atheists cherish. Or at least it confronts it with a problem.

4/ And good news, atheists are human beings like all others. They don’t like it when reality contradicts their dogmas :)
