why do so many people think the brain is somehow totally isolated from the body? (leminal.space)

like the brain is literally encased in the body so how can it be separate? like if you go around licking lamp posts you're going to pick up some germ that's gonna make you feel like crap and you get insomnia or fever and your brain will definitely be impacted. and so you'll have short temper and that'll get you into trouble.

This might have come up today in a few pages of the novel I'm reading. The main character in the book has a lot of intrusive thoughts and there is a part where they read someone's blog that has similar thoughts. Anyway, I still don't know your situation, but I thought I'd put the name of the book here incase its helpful to someone:

"Turtles all the way down" by John Green

Its also a movie by the same name
