How those bits go to human cognition is not a matter of physics. It is just a matter of neuroscience. There isn’t any room for exotic physics in the functioning of these bits and their interactions.

That the bits we know about are even everything that goes into cognition except how they hook up is somewhere between exuberant optimistic speculation and rank hubris.

No that is just physical fact. Disbelief in the supernatural is not hubris.
