How does the brain perform complex operations without logic gates?

Question

Given how neurons just carry impulses around like wires, with only an input and an output, how can these signals amount to conscious thought without some form of logic gates like in computers?

It appears to be a result greater than the sum of its parts. How can this be?

Answer 1

Sorry, but neurons can have one or multiple inputs (see dendrites) and one or multiple outputs (see axon), far more than any logic gate.
