 | | Freudianism was in a sense a revival of the substantial view of the mind in a secular guise. | | | Berkeley's views were attacked, and in the eyes of many philosophers demolished, by T.H. Huxley, a 19th century biologist and disciple of Charles Darwin, who agreed that the phenomena of the mind were of a unique order, but argued that they can only be explained in reference to events in the brain. | | | This type of belief is also common in certain types of spiritual non-dualistic belief, but outside this field few philosophers take an extreme view today. |

| | The Raelian cult believes that mind uploading is practiced by extra-terrestrial beings who will teach these skills to mankind. | | | Most people use dittos to do their work. | | | In that case, when a mind is copied -- whether during mind uploading, or afterwards, or by some other means -- the two copies are initially two instances of the very same person, but over time, they will gradually become different people to an increasing degree. |

| | Cyberpunk - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | A recurrent criticism of cyberpunk is that it assumes a dualistic picture of the human body and mind, analogous to that of Descartes, and conveying an antipathy to embodied human life. | | | Both games are set in the near future, in a world where cybernetics are prominent. | | | However, other critics have seen cyberpunk as projecting a more sophisticated and modern picture of the mind and its relationship to the body, one that should not be confused with Cartesian dualism and has more to do with cognitive science. |
