It’s not similar to “god of the gaps” at all, as I’m not inserting anything inside of that gap. I have no fucking clue what’s causing it to emerge, and I probably never will. Rather than saying “I don’t know what’s causing lightning so it must be Zeus,” I’m saying “I don’t know what’s causing lightning, but I can see it’s coming from the sky.” Or in this case, I have no idea what’s causing us to experience consciousness, but it seems to be a result of our brain.
And I see no evidence for the idea that consciousness can even exist outside of the brain, nor that an afterlife exists.
The dude literally waited until he was on camera to take the shot. Not only did he know exactly what he was aiming at, he wanted to be seen doing it.
