I am.
The notmike has come to question the philosophy of mind and, if he is greeted with suitable answers and discourse which is pleasing to him, the notmike will remain in this region until he becomes displeased.

Actually, I'm just a sorry ass college student. I have trouble with big words... I'm not talking postulate or conjecture, but when we start talking contra-causal free will being repudiated (I know that one) through some strong proof of agent causality, immaterial substances relating to brains (organ) and yeah... I start getting distracted and confused.

Anywho, I was working on a paper for a few weeks and my prof tells me my topic is bullshit start over. So, now I have one week to write a paper on the existence or non-existence of a soul... and I'm here, along with reading the **** out of some books, trying to get a strong thesis and arguments against it. I figure its easier to prove consciousness as a biological byproduct than to try to postulate some pan-psychic babblewithbullshit.

I need serious help. Hope I'll be able to find some here.

@notmike,
"Soul" might not be synonymous with "consciousness." Before even beginning your writing, it might be best to articulate for yourself exactly what kind of existence you wish to prove; the definition will probably make the proof much easier.
Welcome to Philforum!

To each notmike his drivel is what I always say... Find the drivel of your desire and deviate not from it, Oh notmike...
