In reaction to natural rationality: assertion: "The whole show is a product of purposeless emergence leveling up in complexity"

Consciousness is the forum in which we either act out or "act as if". – Paul VanderKlay

Not only is Consciousness the hard problem, but the relationship of Consciousness to truth is the hard problem and any kind of confidence in reason is the hard problem. – Paul VanderKlay

All of these are hard problems if they come from below not if they come from above. – Paul VanderKlay

Natural rationalist keep promoting what they are basically stealing from above. – Paul VanderKlay

The Godhead is never an object of its own knowledge. Just as a knife doesn't cut itself, fire doesn't burn itself, light doesn't illuminate itself. It's always an endless mystery to itself. – Alan Watts

On Consciousness The search for consciousness asks the question "why is information there?". Now, think about it. What is the real meaning of that question? "Why is there something rather than nothing?" There you go. It's the "why does the universe exist?" argument in disguise. A disguise confabulated with of lots and lots of words. Words like p-zombie. Perspective doesn't ask the impossible question "why is there something rather than nothing?" it asks the question "what is oblivion?"; with which you can create hypothesis to predict outcomes and run experiments to prove these outcomes. The current memes of consciousness are so ingrained, we unknowingly map everything back to them. Free your mind. Assume nothing. Reject these tired old memes and start again - maybe you can find the answer.
