If I couldn't see, hear, touch, taste, smell or speak,
wouldn't I simply just exist but know nothing?
Wouldn't I only know "5" is "5" because someone
suddenly awakened one of my senses and taught me
that "red" is "red"?
Should I be focusing on the purpose of "5" or "red" or
should I concentrate more on the fact why "5" or "red"
exist?
Would that mean that the more senses you use, the more
conscious you are?
Would that mean that aliens have different senses or
that someone taught them that "5" is "3"?


Thank you
Anna
