Is man mind or matter ?




let say i´m walking down the street, and i don´t notice a car speeding towards me, so it hits me and i die, having my brains pour out over the pavement. this is example 1. You are at a party menny of your friends are around you, they all pressure you to take a colorful postage stamp, that contains Lysergic acid diethylamide or LSD to "trip" with them, you succumb to peer pressure you take the tablet get really high, see flying dinosaurs whit banjos and cigars and Fidel Castro dancing, then thanks to how high you are, you walk out the street and a car runs you over and you have your brains pour out over the pavement.Example 2. you are a Chinese emperor and the wizard of your coart says that if you drink mercury you will live forever, you drink mercury get poisoned and you walk out the street and a car runs you over and you have your brains pour out over the pavement.example 3.

so what do these examples have in common, that they prove that mind is not superior to matter, because matter, the body, is what makes the mind. the mind is limited to the matter and the body, the mind, the brain, is made of something, and that something could be modifiable, and so then the mind can be, like drugs or a car. Just take Methylenedioxymethamphetamine(witch is something fiscal) and see how the mind succumbs.

property




something is mine, something is my property if i have power over it, over it´s future, it´s condition location and use. And having the power to limit it´s use future condition location and use, because i own it. An example, so lets say i have a cellphone that i bought at a ligit store, that i paid for, that i exchanged money for something of value and it´s future use and power over it. so lets say then that i go out to a rave, a stupid thing none the less and a mysterious stranger comes up to me. He threatens me with a gun and asks for money jewelry and my cellphone. i am no longer in possession of the cellphone. I no longer have power over it, that right is now held by the thief, he will now decide what happens to my cellphone.
