reductionist model says our memories are in our brains. Why does it say that? Because when the brain is damaged people have damaged memories - whether through Alzheimer’s disease, or a comatose state, or through drunkenness.
But the argument is fallacious: it’s the same thing as saying my radio set is damaged and no music is coming out, therefore the music must be manufactured by my radio. The radio doesn’t manufacture the music; it only actualises the music. My television set doesn’t manufacture all those people that I see inside the box; it only actualises them from somewhere else. So, too, your brain is not the source of your thoughts.
Your brain is a quantum instrument that causes the collapse of wave functions that exist as possibilities before you actualise them as space-time events. So your brain takes possibilities and actualises them into space-time events. It’s a quantum instrument that converts possibility into actuality. It takes the unmanifest and makes it manifest, both in imagination and also as sensory experience.

I think sooner or later, this should catch on....
nonetheless, I'll keep rambling about, because as time goes on, more and more people seem to be understanding , whether it be by standing on the shoulders of giants, or seaching around the giants feet where the giant never looked.... it's there, and it's big.
The fact that the exact things that I have deducted in regards to the "soul" and quantum mechanics with only minimal influence from borrowed ideas and common scientific theorum, causes me to then deduce that either there is some clear cut case of mass self-delusion that is happening, or that we actually my be slowly uncovering that veil of darkness that has shrouded the human intellect for eons. i don't make this stuff up, and it is not a choice to not believe it, once you see the Man Behind the Curtain, it's hard to believe the stories about the Great Oz. I see the scientific world only in it's infancy regarding the true nature of the life, the universe, and everything.
