Can you elaborate on what this conception/model of what the mind is LIKE?
It's like a computer.
Yet a computer is made up of physical parts, which by the way can be pulled down and put back together again.
Are you suggesting the 'mind' is LIKE this?

If yes, then will you share that conception/model with US here?
Just did. If you want more information see here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_computation
In theoretical computer science and mathematics, the theory of computation is the branch that deals with how efficiently problems can be solved on a model of computation, using an algorithm. The field is divided into three major branches: automata theory and languages, computability theory, and computational complexity theory, which are linked by the question: "What are the fundamental capabilities and limitations of computers?"
The question above applies when asked as "What are the fundamental capabilities and limitations of human minds?"
First you have to clear up what the 'mind' is LIKE before we could go onto some thing like this.
You have already expressed how fundamentally incapable and limited you are because to you there are some things that are very complex and extremely hard to solve/understand in Life, which by the way is the exact opposite of how I LOOK AT and SEE things.
Now, WHY would that BE?

Saying, "I have a well-developed bullshit filter" again comes across as though "others" do NOT have as "well-developed bullshit filter" as you THINK/BELIEVE you do. Some might say that this is a 'superiority complex' SHOWING its self again.
No. It should come across as "some do have a well-developed bullshit filter and some do not".
I have a well-developed bullshit filter. I can recognize those who don't.
How do 'you' know that your "bullshit filter" is working properly or even working at all? Who/what decides if the "filter" is doing its job properly AND correctly?
A self-regulating filter of what could be there or not even there would be some kind of creation.

Saying, "My mind is closed to bullshit" infers a 'If any thing contradicts or opposes what I BELIEVE is True, then I am NOT at all open to it' attitude.
No it doesn't.
So, name one thing that "your" "bullshit filter" KNOWS, and then, if you do, we can LOOK AT and SEE just how OPEN you really ARE.

Saying, "My mind is closed to bullshit" implies that what one BELIEVES is True is NOT "bullshit" at all, and therefore will freely fling 'THIS' around without ever even considering it to be "bullshit" or NOT.
False dichotomy. What I believe is LESS bullshit than what YOU believe.
It really is True that NO matter how many times I tell you that I do NOT believe, you want to INSIST that I DO.
Maybe this is ALL the EVIDENCE I NEEDED to SHOW of how if one has a
'If any thing contradicts or opposes what I BELIEVE is True, then I am NOT at all open to it' ATTITUDE.
Logik wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2019 9:22 amI am less gullible than you.
YET I do NOT believe nor disbelieve any thing, like YOU DO.
So, WHAT am I meant to be more gullible of EXACTLY?
Also, the 'superiority complex' creeping back into VIEW again.

Now, can you explain who/what the 'my' is in relation to 'my mind', and how that one would accurately KNOW if 'its' 'mind' was closed to "bullshit" or NOT?
What answer would appease you?
An Open and Honest answer.
And do NOT let that STOP you from now answering.
Diversion tactics can only last for so long.

When, and if, you are able to explain these two things
To WHOSE satisfaction?
To the READERS. They are the ones who make decisions.
But do NOT forget you have to PROVIDE some thing FIRST, before any one could be satisfied, or NOT.
You can only divert for so long before it becomes clearly OBVIOUS that you are TRYING TO deflect away from the POINT in question.

and HOW EXACTLY they are in relation to each other, then we ALL will be able to take a LOOK AT and SEE if the so called "well-developed bullshit filter" actually is working or NOT.
That is a strange request.
You used the words 'my' and 'mind' together in the phrase 'my mind'. I just asked the straight forward simple question above.
When, and if, you ever find out what the ACTUAL ANSWER IS, then you will REALIZE that it was NOT a strange request at all.
Logik wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2019 9:22 am You put the bar for evidence SO HIGH when you want ME to explain something, yet you remove the bar for evidence when YOU need to explain something.
When have I HAD to explain some thing?
You have to challenge or question me FIRST if you want ME to explain some thing.
Also, IF you can NOT explain what the 'my' and what 'mind' is, then just say so.
I certainly was NOT expecting that you could, so do NOT feel to bad about it.
Logik wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2019 9:22 amAh. The double standards.
The deflective measures are working overtime now.
Logik wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2019 9:22 amNo - I will not teach you.
Some might suggest that that is because you are incapable of answering, and thus also incapable of teaching.
Logik wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2019 9:22 amFor you show no signs of anybody capable of learning anything.
That is IT, bring in the "I am BETTER than you are" ATTITUDE again. Come across as "YOU are to stupid to learn anything that I could teach because I am superior to you" ATTITUDE, and HOPEFULLY that will divert reader's attention away from "me" only being able to answer SOME of the questions posed to "me" and NOT to ALL of them.
The MORE you TRY TO divert away from what I am POINTING OUT, then the MORE EVIDENCE you are PROVIDING, and the MORE EVIDENCE I also HAVE to SHOW and PROVE just how the Mind and the brain actually work.
Also, are you absolutely 100% sure that I show absolutely NO signs at all of being capable of learning any thing at all?
If yes, then 'you' MUST REALLY BE that far more superior than 'I' am.
