Thank you for your answer. If I am right with 'mental sameness =/ physical sameness' you mean 'mental sameness does not implicate phys. sameness'. Anyway that doesn't contradict the supervenience thesis, cause it says that 'mental DIFFERENCE implicates phys. difference'. On the other side, I totally agree when you say 'The reason we should reject it is due to the underdtanding that each and every single brain is unique'. If two brains (phys. states) can't have the same state, how can we suppose something like the supervenience thesis? See you. Hello Shay,
