A Kind of Spiritual Robot but Not Biological Robot
One of the largest issues for human beings is the origin of consciousness, minds, and their relations with spirits and souls.
It is known that mind work consists in work of the brain or specifically neurons (specialized, impulse-conducting cells, each of which is the functional unit of the nervous system, consisting of the cell body and its processes, the axon and dendrites). But how?
The human brain has some 8.6 x 10^10 (eighty six billion) neurons. Each neuron has on average 7,000 synaptic connections to other neurons. It has been estimated that the brain of a three-year-old child has about 10^15 synapses (1 quadrillion). This number declines with age, stabilizing by adulthood. Estimates vary for an adult, ranging from 10^14 to 5 x 10^14 synapses (100 to 500 trillion).

Anyway, it is better to have right and correct images of neurons or brain cells in the human body.

If a man can ask himself what he is, and if he answers that he is his body, including the brain and its nerve systems, he is a robot or more specifically a biological robot. But, If a man can ask himself what he is, and if he answers that he is somebody who thinks in his brain using its nerve systems, he is a human being.
In order for a man to think in his brain using its nerve systems, the brain and its nerve systems must have complicated and refined structure (and functions) as we actually observe in these pictures. In other words, as the brain and its nerve systems are so complicated and refined as we see in the above pictures, we can think freely for ourselves as human beings.
But, we should not misunderstand that a human being is the brain and its nerve systems. A human being is the one who thinks, in the brain using its nerve systems, what he is, because he intuitively thinks that he is not a simple mass of nerve systems in the brain and body parts but that he is something more sophisticated and advanced that that.
A human being is not a biological robot made of a biological body, the biological brain, and its nerve systems, who works along with electronic signals or pulses running through the nerve systems.
For example, a sight or an object captured by the eyes, working as a kind of lenses, are transformed to electronic signals and transmitted through nerve systems to some brain cells to process them and store the processed signals like in a digital camera and its memory. But there must be somebody in the brain who can reproduce the sight or the object from the stored electronic signals. That somebody can see the sight or the object like a viewer of pictures taken in a digital camera. And this somebody is he, so think the person should.
It must be like somebody seeing images on a cable TV set displaying the images on its display after receiving electronic signals from a cable, although there are billion cables in the brain.
In this context, a human being is different from a biological robot made of the biological body, brain, and nerve systems. But a human being must be a kind of spiritual robot but not biological robot made of biological body parts including nerve systems, not matter how complicated and refined they are.

John 5 King James Version (KJV)
23 That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.
24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
26 For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;
27 And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.
