Our reality depends on what our biology is up to.

I'm using the afterlife as a backdrop against which to explore the joys and complexities of being human - it turns out that it's a great lens with which to understand what matters to us.

Just like a good drama, the human brain runs on conflict.

We're trapped on this very thin slice of perception ... But even at that slice of reality that we call home, we're not seeing most of what's going on.

Just give the brain the information and it will figure it out.

This is what consciousness does: it sets the goals, and the rest of the system learns how to meet them.

Every week I get letters from people worldwide who feel that the possibilian point of view represents their understanding better than either religion or neo-atheism.
