It occurs to me (perhaps to you also) that we're skipping the question of material reality and immaterial reality. If we don't understand or address what are our presuppositions about the immaterial world, hashing out the mind question won't get us far. Some questions to discuss might be:
(1) What distinguishes material from non-material?
(2) Could anything be wholly immaterial?
Subjects to include in the discussion should include:
(a) The uncaused-cause
(b) ordinary matter
(c) Light
(d) Energy
(e) Gravitational Force
(f) Dark Matter
(g) Dark energy
(h) Abstractions
I think if we are to consider ourselves future Doctors of the Philosophy of Physics, we might as well give this a shot.
