  33. Why is there a basis for dignity MIT’s Noam and honor? Chomsky Conclusions: Since his William James lectures of 1947, Skinner has been sparring No God with these and related problems. The results are nil... No scientific Sacks of chemicals hypotheses with supporting evidence have been produced to substantiate the extravagant claims to which he is addicted… At the No choices, therefore Evidence Evidence moment we have virtually no scientific evidence and not even the against God no dignity for God germs of an interesting hypothesis about how human behavior is determined.

  36. Why is there a basis for dignity Princeton’s and honor? Edward Witten Conclusions: I think consciousness will remain a mystery … I tend to think that the No God workings of the conscious brain will be elucidated to a large extent. Sacks of chemicals Biologists and perhaps physicists will understand much better how the brain works. But why something that we call consciousness goes No choices, therefore Evidence Evidence with those workings, I think that will remain mysterious. I have a against God no dignity for God much easier time imagining how we understand the Big Bang than I have imagining how we can understand consciousness
