I wish I understood why people feel compelled to say silly things like that.
There is not one person on planet Earth who thinks he does not think.
Yes it's true that a good definition of consciousness is probably imposable,
but that is a small loss. And as for another demonstration of consciousness
to prove its existence, well obviously that is completely redundant.

The point is that the thing you want more to happen than anything else in
the whole wide world is for your consciousness to continue, even though
you believe it doesn't exist.
