Well, I didn't answer that thesis very well... made up my own view and then didn't comment on everything. Fixed it in my second version tho.
I said that with the information we know it is most reasonable to conclude that the patient in fact had mental states. Also that a soul is not necessary and nor is an organic brain, but only one that functions as one.
I based it on the outward behavior (aka, Ryle), that a mind is necessary for mental states and a soul is not.
What did you say?
