I agree with d*d. you can have a brain that does all the things that it is supposed to do, but the debate about "awareness" is still controversial. For example, your brain may be able to feel the pain during an operation, but YOU do not feel it because you are not "aware." The brain is still functioniong, but it is not conveying that information to YOU. What is that YOU? I don't know .. it could be part of the brain or it could be something to more spiritual. It is this YOU that forms the basis of many basic theories of religion, which often raise man to a spiritual level..

So ultimately... we are all YOUs assigned physical shapes.
