Is this hard to grasp?
First, the language I speak is English, and I speak no language besides it; so the thing that Percy was willing to bet on, even that claim is false. To make sense in English I am fully able, but I wrote my posts with the purpose of style, and rushed through every one. Also in logic there is lack of skill in me, although in a course on the same I attained an A, seeing that most of what I learned, that I also forgot. But when I need not to compose an argument, I am well able to write with sense. Despite what it seems, with no intent have I hidden in my words a single thought.
I am unready to debate with you all, so to study what is needful I will take a break. For with me is no argument, nor knowledge, nor evidence, by which I am able to persuade your minds; having made these posts mostly with arguments formed by the mind that is in myself. So a break will I take to advance my knowledge, of logic, of science, and of defending the faith.

Yes, I'm actually schizophrenic, but my disability doesn't prevent me from using English, my natural language, correctly, seeing I'm on medication. I was simply trying to achieve certain stylistic qualities in my posts, having trouble choosing words conveying my meaning precisely, uncertain of the meaning of the words. Since I didn't have enough time to phrase my words clearly and rhythmically enough, I wasn't able to accomplish my purpose. I was also unintentionally careless with my words.
I'm not going to stop with the stylistic efforts, but I will make sure that in the rest of my posts here, my language will be clear and correct, not shunning to use rhetorical devices, some of which interrupt grammar.

Re: gobbledygook
For this I apologize, that I've not studied science in these past days, nor logic, nor defense of the faith, whereby I may formulate sound and valid arguments. But now I will argue the best I can, being as clear as I can, in the hope that this will be good enough for you all. And for not replying to many comments, I ask you to forgive me. I will answer a point conveyed within them.
I say that all things, physical things, possess both behavior and properties, which in nature are not beyond the spatial and temporal. For in space do they move, and in space do they change; likewise through time do they do these things. And all things from interaction among them, emerge from their working together. And without emergence from their working together, they have no emergent property.
Now a mind is sentient, and experiences sight, feeling, thought, and more, which things from our point of view are composed of qualia, something possessed by no things indivisible. For these things are quanta, with behaviors and properties, not in themselves having qualia.
Therefore seeing that from things indivisible, there is no grouping of their working together, which is able to generate things we know as qualia, how it is possible this is a property emerging from physical processes? For the physical processes depend on components, which themselves depend on the physical; at the lowest level is dependence on things indivisible, which have no property with resemblance to qualia. Therefore how does the qualia emerge, which, by no steps of grouping nor working together, can be the result of the things of which they consist.
Sorry for any lack of clarity. By no means was it intended, neither in a style more plain would my mind explain it more easily.
