Profile Information

About Me:
Interested in the Brain, the Mind, and Consciousness, for starters. My own "Philosophy of Mind" is Dualist / Interactionist, but ultimately I'm a "monist"; it has to be "all one" in the end. But that ONE END is going to be much more than Science, as we know it today! I'm also interested in modern physics and cosmology, photography, Zen practice, the historical view of Jesus and his movement, old cities in the Northeastern US, vegetarian cooking, political analysis, and maybe the betterment of humankind -- if that's still possible. (Let's hope so.)
