I know.....Let me explain further. I think that the "self" is a composite of body and soul, which interface through the brain. I think that consciousness, including reflexive self- awareness, and intention, including free will, derive mainly from the soul acting upon experience. I think that reason and emotion have both physical and spiritual components. Thus, lower order rationality is shared with animals, to varying degrees, as are the visceral aspects of emotion. In invoking perception, even though we share it with other animals, I was making the limited point that ourselves have no kind of coherent existence without perception, and perception required elementary abstraction, thus making our rational faculties essential to our selfhood.......
