    I’m in a facebook group called “Real Atheology” they do super technical logic stuff about theology, but the “A” is against, just like a-theist. Here’s how they put it just recently:

    The Mind-Body Problem

    (1) The body is a physical entity.
    (2) The mind is a non-physical entity.
    (3) The mind and the body causally interact.
    (4) Physical entities and non-physical entities cannot causally interact.

    These 4 propositions cannot all be true. No one can consistently believe all 4 propositions. If any 3 are true, then the 4rth must be false.

    The mind interacts with the body => The body is a physical thing => A physical thing cannot interact with a non-physical thing => The mind is a non-physical thing

    I’m a little uncomfortable with it, but I think 2 is true and 4 is false.
