Are human beings matter or psyche?

  • Psyche is the function of the organized matter in the brain as in the same way urine is the function of kidneys but we can find this function not only in the human being, as the matter of fact the capacity of thinking exist specially in the superior mammals like dogs, cats, monkeys, chimps, dolphins, walles, and in many kinds of birds.
    The capacity of thinking is not exlusive of the human being, it is exclusive of the complex brain and every animal with the complex brain can think as it is demostrated by the science.

The human being without brain can not think it means that the function of the brain is thinking as the greatest conquer of organized matter.

Long time ago several philosophers used to think that the human being was psyche contained by the matter. Today we know that the psyche is the function of the matter so if the question is are we psyche or matter? The answer is we are both.

How can something be someone's property?


There are two kinds of concepts about property. The first one is about the property. It depends upon the local culture, local history, and local laws. For instance to be an owner of a piece of land or owner of a house or any other good .

In Australia may have differents rules from the rules that exist in our Amazonia or in Alaska, in many areas of the world, specially in the primitive country side, there are not clear limits or legal papers. People understand that in the same in way as the light of sun belongs to everybody and the air that we breath has no limits in the same way the land, the water and food belong to everybody.

The other kind of propertie could be understood like a colective and cultural creation for instanccce dancing, music, legend, etc.
For example: The tango belong to Argentina, the Cumbia to Colombia, Ranchera to Mexico.
