A = "My sensual experiences cant be observed"The reason why my sensual experiences can't be observed is because there can only be one me in the physical form of my brain strictly.
B = "there can only be one me in the physical form of my brain strictly."
How do you know that B is true?
How do A follow from B?
Please answer both these questions.
It is absolutely impossible for B to be false. One thing can't be another thing. I would say that this is the strongest and clearest truth statement in logic that I know, and it even applies very successfully to the real world. Even if there is an identical clone of me in an identical universe with identical outcomes from the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics, it still would not be me. There can only be one one (not a typo).
As for your second question, if my sensual experience requires my unique brain process that I am arguing cannot be anything else, then it is impossible to experience my experience. In other words, it would require something else to be me which is impossible.
