I just finished watching Robocop again and I'm piss drunk and I had a thought.


Wouldn't a cyborg, if it was built like robocop automaticallly think of itself in a first person sense becaue it's still biologically programmed too?

I mean. Take away the soul factor right and your left with just a biological body thing. Wouldn't the biolgocial DNA stuff make it think along the lines of I am, not I was?

No
He says i was because he isnt what what he once was

But wouldn't he think he still was?

Where does he get this new "I" from?

He can see that he's different and probably feels different, what withing 80% metal and all that

but he has no soul. He can't feel bad and shit.

Well maybe he can...

I still think the remaining tissue would naturally think in terms of 'I am' instead of 'I was'.

He still has a brain doesn't he. That means he can feel emotions and think for himself :shrug:
