There is no valid deduction from the phrase 'We know that we know' that leads to the conclusion that consciousness (Sapience) is the 'primal actioner'

Presumably 'Primal Actioner' equates to first cause. If Sapience is the result of complex biological functions .... then they (biological actions) would be the 'Primal Actioner'.

But we class them as organic ! Organic compounds are made from inorganic elements ... So now they become the 'Primal Actioner' . How far do we go .... and why did you only use your 'reductio absurdium' until you arrived at Consciousness ?

Was this as far as you could go before you 'hit the wall' of your own superstitions ?

Get with it Michael, your logic of first causes is faulty this time anyway.
