And if you don't get the processing correct then will it
not have the feeling of being alive? If it doesn't have
this feeling then it is not conscious and you seem to
like the idea anything that reacts, even a rock, has such
feelings.

I see you are still mainly interested in the soul question.
At least your post this time drops the conditioning stuff
and show some insight into the psychological reasons
people want to believe in an immortal soul.

I believe my life will be better if I can solve AI.
I believe I could be very rich and famous if only I
could figure out the missing pieces of this AI puzzle.

Well if you want to discover the missing pieces of AI I
suggest you stop worrying about others and their belief
in souls etc and concentrate on your experiments and
leave the soul stuff to the other newsgroups? You aren't
going to change other people's psychological needs to
believe in the soul.
