In the world of science, what do we really know about thoughts?

Where do thoughts come from in the brain?
Early cognitive psychologists defined thought as an activity that resides in the brain: Sensory data come in from eyes and ears, fingers and funny bone, and the mind turns these signals into disembodied representations that it manipulates in what we call thinking. Is it possible that you create your thoughts into the external world from your beliefs, fears, (from past memory and experiences?). In this sessions we will examine our own thoughts and how they been influenced by life experiences.
