I meant did you try bending your elbows further than that?

They technically could go further. Or is your mind/willingness limited by your body?

Have you ever tried moving your toes? Not as a whole, but individually. Like your fingers. The nerves are there, the brain connections are there, the muscles are there…can your mind grow enough to make them function?

You are correct. I do make a guess as to who feels what. I just don’t feel the need to limit my guesses to some arbitrary definition of life that does feel pain and life that does not feel pain. All life feels pain. Plants included.
