Why is there a seperation between the body and the mind such that we are incapable of controlling all bodily functions manually (such as digestion)?
In: Biology
Our ‘mind’ is basically just the complex problem solving part of our body, so it only does things related to that. ‘We’ are capable of controlling all bodily functions manually in the sense that we are our bodies, and our bodies control them. It isn’t our conciousness’ job to control them, so it doesn’t.
Kinda like saying why can’t we walk with our eyes? Not their job.
