The donut soul paradox, why are we conscious

[under construction]
[This is a post that I am still writing on, editing some misspellings and adding a few things in. Still, I have published it, because I believe I have withen egnuff for people to reed and comment. But just so you know, more will come shortly. 27. January 2009]

In this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGTleaTCXq8&feature=related) vdizhoor asks what if we froce you down, copied all your molecules and made an other you, then exchanged 50% of the molecules between your bodies, then waked you up placing either a beer or a donut at the side of you. Who would you be? Would you see the beer or the donut?

Lets take an other example, taken from a startec-episode: Two persons travels with a teleport. Something wrong happens and out of the teleport comes one person, bearing the genetics, the molecules, and the memory of both persons. Who is this person?

If we had even more advanced medicine than today we could split a person with it's brain in 2 (the two parts of the brain, left and right hemisphere, can work perfectly on their own), and you would sudenly have 2 persons. Which one would you be? I will answer bout. And that can not be understood with the ordinary soul-thinking that is teached in almost every religion in the world (at least the ones I know about).

We must get away from the thinking of a soul, somthing every person has, that is either, belived by some religions; sent to heaven or hell when we die, or by other religions; just takes part of a new person. The first one is sientifacly stupid becouse there is know evidence, and now reason why it should be that way. The second one is, thought belived as more sientificly corect, just as stupid. You have lots of anarkists still beliving in a soul. The question is why would there be a soul if there is no god? Is there a force in the universe that somehow creates a soul when a living thing comes to live?

We know one thing though, we have a consciousness. We know we are alive, we sense the world. We are not just mechanical objects wandering around. And that is wery strange to me. Why is it like this? Why does some electrical/chemical signals in the brain, besides moving the body around in response to the environment making the body survive long egnuff to replicate it's geens, why is it so that we can feel this prosess, that we are conscious? In a physical world, of atoms and radiation, why do we feel anything?

I belie there is no "soul" as we think about it, but that it, our consciousness, is made up of electrical signals interactions in the brain. I tend to belie that there might be a "soul", one single "soul" in the entire universe, filling all of human beings at the event of these chemical reactions, and the only thing that separates 2 persons (or animals) is that our brains are not attached. So: you will see bout the donut AND the beer, but you will think that you are only one of this persons...
