Yeah I mean mentally obviously. He may be 63 but mentally he's about 14?

The mind being an emergent property involves no such mysticism. Its a functionality that is utterly linked to and dependant on the brain. From wiki:

Quote:
In philosophy, systems theory, science, and art, emergence occurs when an entity is observed to have properties its parts do not have on their own, properties or behaviors which emerge only when the parts interact in a wider whole.
Its that simple. There's nothing ghostly or mystical about it. Scientists don't even have an understanding of how consciousness works yet but it is quite clearly an emergent property of the brain functioning.

But still you make ridiculous claims like the brain is different than the mind.

to clarify: the way you understand and frame it is different from what he actually means
