Not sure why this got removed from 196lemmy..blahaj.zone but it would be real nice if moderation on Lemmy gave you some sort of notification of what you did wrong. Like an automatic DM or something

You can measure brain activity but not consciousness. Consciousness is most likely an emerging property of brain activity but we can't really say more with out current understanding of it.
You can ever solve a mystery you can't properly identify to begin with.
People feel like something more than physical is going on. Rather than see it as a natural consequence of abstract thinking and self-reflection, they jump to the conclusion that this sense is supernatural.
Science isn't in the business of examining vague hunches. The first step to getting an answer is deciding what there is to explain. Our current theories on the brain are compatable with people thinking about their own thoughts, and even having emotional reactions to that process.
Nothing out of the ordinary, nothing contradicting the scientific worldview has happened. So what is there to explain?
What? I never said consciousness in supernatural, just that we have a poor understanding of it and no way to measure it. I was just using it as an example of an objective statement for something we can't externally confirm.
Again, this is completely irrelevant to my original point...
What we consider consciousness to be is pretty broad, though self-awareness is a common one and that can't be measured with any current instrument.
As I literally previously said: self-awereness
My original point still stands: You can make objective statements about things we can't measure. Also you can't measure self-awareness.
No, that's exactly what I mean by self-awareness and yes we have done tests on it but there is no conclusive way to show and measure it currently. Yes I can make objective statements on that subject which was my point like 20 comments back.
