The human brain is a biological machine comprised of a very large number of simple components that follow the laws of physics. Some combinations of those components interacting in a certain way results in what we consider to be consciousness, but it’s still just a chemical reaction based on purely physical processes. When a brain’s components stop interacting in that way, its consciousness ceases to exist.

I’d like to think there’s more to it. I don’t have a faith or religion but I have stuck with the idea that this can’t be it. Or if it is…oh well.
