A Glorious Piece of Meat
Indeed our brain is a glorious piece of meat. We are physical beings and since we are physical our consciousness wont change. The title of the movie gives off a negative connotation, our brain is a very sophisticated part of our body, yet it makes our brains seem like a mere piece of meat ready to be devoured. We eat because our bodies tell us we're hungry and we sleep for the same reason. The reality is even though our bodies perform such amazing tasks such as digestion and the beating of our heart we really don't control these things; they happen subconsciously. Everything has to do with consciousness. Without this we would no be learning philosophy, going to college, working and having fun in our daily lives. He asks the question of what came first, or what is more important neurons or consciousness? i thnk that one without the other would be impossible. They work together. http://elearn.mtsac.edu/dlane/churchlandmovie5.wmv
