Horse:
The cells of your body co-operate to produce the social PoV's that result in
a
unique you. A body is one form of Social PoV's, government or multinational
corporations are another form.
Horse, what i am asking is why the cells of the body co-operate. that they
do is a given, yes. but by what mechanism does this take place, if it is
indeed a mechanism?
Glove if you consider the massive interaction within the brain and the sort
of
complexity that this represents then there is no need to place instincts at
the
intellectual level. There is also no need to insist that any one location in
the brain
is responsible for a particular behaviour. It is the complex interaction and
the
emergent patterns that govern instinctive behaviour. When chemicals of
various types are introduced into the brain the interaction is altered in
often unpredictable
ways.
Horse, if we suppose a physical, actual object as instinct, as it would be
if it were biological, then it is of primary importance that we can point to
it and say there! that is where the instincts are stored! right there!
because if we cannot do that, then instinct does not belong to the
biological level but to either the social or intellect, the subjective,
non-actual side of reality.
best wishes,
glove
