Why is it conscious? This suggests that an explanation of consciousness will have to go beyond the usual methods of science.

First of all, "why" is simply not a valid scientific question. "How" is the only relevant term.

Secondly, this is a philosophy article. Philosophy is not a science, to explain a brain. We don't fully understand quantum physics, would you ask a philosopher about that?

And finally: insulting another person, because they question your belief. Awesome behavior. Do you want to assemble a mob next to burn me at the stake?

Literally try Google. I'm not here to educate you.

Bye!
