hey whatta long post!
I'm fairly analytical and critical at times. so I think I can understand what you're getting at.
one thought did pop up in the midst of all the reading...
Apes... they barely do anything and just do things when they think, feel or have the urge to do. Now we have some apes, such as a gorilla or orang-utan who have communicated with humans through means of sign language which goes on to show that they have intelligence. what puzzles me about them is that how do they spend about 98% of their day doing nothing but eat, drink or sleep if they have this much intelligence?
well, i think - this's gotta have to do with the subconscious! the early humans, like the stone age humans up to maybe Egyptian era, they used their subconscious, and as their attitudes, personalities develope, they start using their Conscious mind? It's just a thought. I mean it would explain all that genuity of the past and how it's altered up to now. this would be because we're using our conscious minds more and more than we use our subconscious.
This would say that our subconscious is our source of information and our consciousness is our personality for our interactions with different people.
Hope this makes sense at all
