What ia the The hard problem of consciousness?

I dont understand the debate on the “I”. So how does materialists explain consciousness and how are their believes unprovable? Are everything including science “just” a religion?

I don’t see why the source of consciousness would be unprovable.

No, we don’t have a good answer to it today, but that doesn’t make it unptovable. I can easily imagine a future where we have full mapped and understand the brain, and are able to perfectly, in a scientific way, could explain the concept of consciousness.

I’m not saying that must be the case, but looking at the history of scientific discovery, I tend to lean more towards “do not yet understand” rather than “is impossible to understand”.
