Feeeeeeelings
BBC is doing a feature on the neural aspects of pleasure. "Scientist" says that the pleasure center is "unitrah", which means, I think, unitary. Says the pleasures of music and art and food FEEL different but are actually the same.
Nonsense. FEELING different means that different things are happening in the nervous system. Tautology. Some of the activity may be in the same area with the same pathways, and some of it is in different areas. If your MRI shows identical activity, it means you aren't seeing everything yet. Need to look elsewhere.
If "scientist" can't make that obvious connection, he shouldn't be doing science. If FEELING isn't in the nervous system, where is it? The astral plane? God's mind? Those are non-scientific assumptions.
