An animal ego and consciousness are pretty much mechanical, since there isn’t a completely evolved ego and so it has no real sense of self and soul. An animal can inhabit any animal form that is in its evolutionary stage. Since humans have a completely evolved ego and self with strong emotional attachments to images of characteristics it identifies with completely, they can’t or won’t incarnate into just any human form.

Citation please.

Humanism.. I knew it!

It might be "Humanism". That’s a real word, but I’m not in the mood to fact-check myself with an online dictionary.

Cloning a human is no more difficult than cloning a lamb (except for the legal restrictions.)

Sorry, your assumptions and conclusions are incorrect.
Did you make them up yourself?

This can get very philosophical, but in terms of the brain per se, there are different levels of consciousness:

The unconscious- what your not aware of
The subconscious- the transition state between unconscious and conscious
The conscious- what you are aware of

Your brain does many things that you are not aware of. For example when you see an object in front of you, your brain is taking in numerous amounts of data and processing them simultaneously. To give you a slight idea we know the characteristics of the object because our brain uses the distance between your two eyes and the distance of the object by calculating the angle, size, color, lighting, light refraction, etc. All this is data you are not aware of and probably couldn’t calculate yourself. My professor would always say, your brain is so much smarter than you are. It knows how to calculate things your’ve never seen before. This is all part of your unconsciousness. Your brain takes in data from the environment and at that moment you don’t know any of it exists until your brain processes the information. As soon as it processes the information you suddenly become aware of it in a way that makes sense to you known as your consciousness. It works kinda like a computer, it works in 1s and 0s. Of course none of that makes sense to any of us until those 1s and 0s are processed into something meaningful. The meaningful part is our conscious. Its scary to think our brain picks up things more than we realize that we never notice.

So in terms of the brain the information we receive from the environment from all our five sensory inputs, is all wired to go straight to our hypothalamus (the unconscious part). The information goes from the hypothalamus to the higher levels of the brain known as the cerebral cortex in the necessary location to be processed into something meaningful (the conscious part). In fact we would not know we would even exist unless our brain processes it.

The answer is general. The question for now cannot be fully understood. Much research needs to be done in order to truly understand the nature of what drives our existence.

How does Existentialist view of human consciousness relate to the argument for human freedom?

They were all about the subjective human experience, and the choices, values, beliefs, identify of the chooser.

I understand that complex systems can sometimes behavior in ways that are entirely unpredictable, for example the human brain can be described as cellular functions and neurochemical interactions, but that description does not explain human consciousness a capacity that far exceeds simple neuro functions, argo, consciousness is an emergent property?

You should develop it as a permanent property to be leader?

We know that there are two ways of looking at human consciousness. One is from the metaphisical aspect -that there is a soul of lifeforce behind it, and second is the physical aspect -that the brain is physical and the energy that it emits is physical. One thing we know about matter and energy- It’s eternal. Matter and energy cannot be created nor destroyed. So what does this all mean?

What have you found in your research, and how does it add up to you?

i believe it to be eternal,all this physical stuff is temporary.We have all been give a small dash before we go to the after life.I believe a Small group has been in control of this world for along time and now they aim to take away the belief in a creator by telling you we came from nothing and this what you see is all there is to see.Think about it people drink fight and masturbate and are obsessed with material things and they think that this life is all there is.People want to make the most of it but you can have all the money and all the gold but you cant take it with you.Thye dont want people to think of how bad we are all effecting our souls with stuff we know does not make us happy.Its a short journey and an illusion but those who keep the knoledge and have done for centuries will tell you the next world is an illusion

For example, the child develops the capacity of abstract thinking at the age of 11… What happens at the age of 4-7?

Jean Piaget labled this as the Preoperational Stage of cognitive development meaning that by the age of four and five a child learns to recognize shapes and symbols. The child is also more adept at verbalizing and forming more complete sentences while communicating with others. By six and seven the child is able to think in less abstract ways with much less egocentrism and demonstrate a more nurturing behavior towards others.

I know that sounds odd but I heard something about how strange things start to happen when consciousness/the brain is studied at a really microscopic level!?
Something about how the neuron cells functioned baffled some scientists and it had something to do with physics I cant remember what it was about!?

Hm, well all you would see would be neuron cells at work.

If so, what is it? and do you think it proves the existence of a soul?

No, when we die, every aspect of our personality is gone as well.
