New Theory: Consciousness May Not Require Flesh and Blood

Unexplained Mysteries summarizes a new theory proposing that conscious awareness may not be exclusive to biological organisms, raising the possibility that mind-like properties could be more common than standard brain-centered models allow.

This belongs in the feed because consciousness is where science, speculation, and belief systems repeatedly collide. The important question is not whether every strange claim about awareness becomes evidence, but whether the boundaries of mind are as narrow as everyday assumptions make them feel.
