Well duh.
Great strides youve taken there. As I said in the OP evolution and physics are considered to be true and definetly have a hand in consciousness. The question is why do you experience "blue"? Why is subjective experience a thing that occurs? Why does the inner life behind your eyes happen?
This isnt a new age apologetics. Its an earnest quesion. Im a staunch naturalist and firmly believe there is a good explanation for it in science.

“Houses are built alongside the streets in good order, the one close to the other,” writes the 17th-century Dutch visitor Olfert Dapper. “Adorned with gables and steps … they are usually broad with long galleries inside. Moreover, every house is provided with a well for the supply of fresh water”.

The city was split into 11 divisions, comprising a sprawling series of compounds containing accommodation, workshops and public buildings.
The exterior walls of the courts and compounds were decorated with horizontal ridge designs (agben) and clay carvings portraying animals, warriors and other symbols of power.

At the height of its greatness in the 12th century, the kings and nobles of Benin City patronised craftsmen and lavished them with gifts and wealth, in return for their depiction of the kings’ and dignitaries’ great exploits in intricate bronze sculptures.

“These works from Benin are equal to the very finest examples of European casting technique,” wrote Professor Felix von Luschan, formerly of the Berlin Ethnological Museum.

What impressed the first visiting Europeans most was the wealth, artistic beauty and magnificence of the city. Immediately European nations saw the opportunity to develop trade with the wealthy kingdom, importing ivory, palm oil and pepper – and exporting guns.

Now, however, the great Benin City is lost to history. Its decline began in the 15th century, sparked by internal conflicts linked to the increasing European intrusion and slavery trade at the borders of the Benin empire.

Then in 1897, the city was destroyed by British soldiers – looted, blown up and burnt to the ground.

Benin's cool, but its walls are a meme. I have no idea why people act like a bunch of earth banks and ditches were something special. Those claims about the walls being longer than the great wall of China are only true if you count every tiny little ditch and bank anywhere within miles of the city. You could probably make the same claims if you took all the stone field walls in Ireland and called them 'the Great Walls of Ireland'. It's stupid.

>Fractals
Never heard of this. Doesn't look like one to me (pic related).

>The main streets had underground drainage made of a sunken impluvium with an outlet to carry away storm water.
Is there a source for this? I've never heard anything about this.

This chronology is garbage. Benin's height was the 15th-17th century, and its decline was the 18th and 19th. It didn't even exist in the 12th. Also Benin generally had very little to do with the slave trade, though I suppose the effects of the slave trade in the wider region might have contributed to its decline.

It's Constantinople all over again.

But just to be precise, Beninglings started chimping out bevause of Euro economic takeover and because the wealthier niggers were selling slaves?

Damn, maybe those Wewuzes really did have superpowers and built the pyramids with their minds until whitey came and took their powers.

Absolutely brilliant. Rei Koz shows an understanding of post-post-modern philosophy that makes him a colleague of Lacan and Zizek at his young age.

yea, no. Discard two cards has always been 3 at sorcery speed, this should be 2BB or 3BB.
